Answer: 60mph

Step-by-step explanation:

500-300 = 200

200 = distance traveled in 2 hrs

100 = distance traveled every hour

100=2x+20, x being the slower train

80=2x

x=40

40+20 = 60, the speed of the faster train

Kryger [21]

Answer:

£2112

Step-by-step explanation:

To find Gavin's share, sum the parts of the ratio, 4 + 1 = 5 parts

Divide the win by 5 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

£8800 ÷ 5 = £1760 ← value of 1 part of ratio, thus

4 parts = 4 × £1760 = £7040 ← Gavin's share

Now repeat the process with the ratio for his family

1 + 6 + 3 = 10 parts

£7040 ÷ 10 = £704 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

6 × £704 = £4224 ← wife's share

3 × £704 = £2112 ← son's share

Difference = £4224 - £2112 = £2112

Thus his wife gets £2112 more than the son
