Answer:

60 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use the x to represent the speed of the car since it is the smaller value.

Then, the distance covered by the car is 4x since was going 4 kph.

The distance covered by the train is (x+5) times 7 or 7x+35.

We know that the total distance covered is 640 km.

Using this information, we can set up the equation 4x+7x+35=640.

By subtracting both sides by 35 and combining the x's, we get a new equation of 11x=605.

After this, we divide both sides by 11 and get x=55.

Lastly, we add 5 to 55 since the train is 5 km faster than the car and that x stood for the car.

Train=60 km/h
