Question

a train can travel at a rate of 85 miles per hour at this rate how many hours would it take the train to go 102 miles

Answer 1

Given:

Speed of train = 85 miles per hour

Total distance = 102 miles

To find:

The time taken by train to cover 102 miles.

Solution:

We know that,

$Speed=\dfrac{Distance}{Time}$

On substituting the values, we get

$85=\dfrac{102}{Time}$

$Time=\dfrac{102}{85}$

$Time=1.2$

Therefore, the time taken by train to cover 102 miles is 1.2 hours.
