Answer:
The train need to leave Portland at 03:27 am
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find out how long it takes the train to travel from Portland, Oregon, to Los Angeles, California

The time is equal to divide the distance by the speed
Let
s ---> the speed in miles per hour
d ---> the distance in miles
t ---> the time in hours
we have

step 2
Adds 30 minutes (time it takes to get from the train station to her aunt's house)
Remember that

step 3
