Answer 1

Answer:

7 hours

Explanation: step 1. 160x4=640

step 2. 1180-640=540

step 3. 540÷180=3

step 4. 3+4=7

Answer 2

Answer:

7 hours

Explanation:

Speed of train in first 4 hours = 160 km/h

Speed of train after 4 hours = 180 km/h

Distance = Speed × Time

$Distance=160\times 4=640\ km$

Distance traveled in first 4 hours = 640 km

Distance remaining = 1180-640 = 540 km

Time = Distance / Speed

$Time=\frac{540}{180}=3\ hours$

Total time taken by the train is 4+3 = 7 hours
