Question

Biking at 8 mph, it takes Kristen hour to reach the train station to go to work. Kristen then takes the train to work, and it takes another hour for her to get to work when the train travels 24 mph. How far does Kristen travel to work?

Answer 1

Kristin traveled 32 miles to get to work. This is because, since it took her an hour on bike, it was 8 miles to the station. Then, because it took an hour on the train, she went 24 miles. 8+24 is 32.
