Question

Find the distance traveled by a train at 135 miles per hour for 40 minutes

Answer 1

The train traveled 90 miles in 40 minutes.

Explanation:

40 minutes is
`(2)/(3)` of an hour. Because the speed is in miles/hour, we just need to multiple the distance by the time in hours to get the new distance.

135 ×
`(2)/(3)` = 90 miles

The train traveled 90 miles in 40 minutes.
