Answer:

425 miles

Explanation:

If it travels for a longer time, it will cover more miles.

You can therefore treat this as direct proportion without having to find the actual speed of the train. It is enough to know that it will travel at the same speed.

255/3 = x/5

85 = x/5

x = 425

If a train travels 255 miles in 3 hours, how far will the train travel in 5 hours at the same rate?
