Question

6. How fast is each train traveling (km/h)? Round to the nearest whole number. a) Train A travels 520.4 km in 4.8 h b) Train B travels 72.1 km in 0.8 h​

Answer 1

Answer: a) To find the speed of Train A, we need to divide the distance traveled by the time taken:

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed = 520.4 km / 4.8 h

Speed ≈ 108.42 km/h

Rounding to the nearest whole number, we get:

Train A is traveling at 108 km/h (approximately).

b) To find the speed of Train B, we need to divide the distance traveled by the time taken:

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed = 72.1 km / 0.8 h

Speed ≈ 90.13 km/h

Rounding to the nearest whole number, we get:

Train B is traveling at 90 km/h (approximately).
