Given a train running at a speed of 72 km/h.

We have to find the time taken to cover a distance of 300 km.

We can use the relation between distance, time and speed to solve this.

speed = distance

time

time : distance

speed

The time taken will be:

t = 300 h

72

We can simplify it further to get:

t = 25 h

6

Thus, the time taken is 25/6 hours.

Answer:

4hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

speed =72km/hr

distance= 300km

time =?

speed = distance/time

using this formula we make time the subject of the formula

time = distance/speed

time = 300/72

time = 4.1

therefore,

time is equal to 4hrs
