Question

A train can travel at a rate of 85 miles per hour. At this rate, how many hours will it take the train to go 102 miles

Answer 1

Answer:

$Time = 1.2\ hours$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Speed= 85\ miles/hour$

Required

Determine the time for 102 miles

In this case, we make use of Speed formula as follows:

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

This gives:

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

Solve for Time

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

$Time = 1.2\ hours$

Hence, the time needed is 1.2 hours
