Answer: 85 miles per hour

Explanation:

We know that the formula to calculate speed is given by :-


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

Given: The distance traveled by Aaron in train = 680 miles

The time taken by train = 8 hours

Then,
\text{Speed}=(680)/(8)=85\text{ miles per hour}

Hence, the speed of the train=85 miles per hour

divide distance by time

680 / 8 = 85 miles per hour
