Answer 1

Answer:

total distance = 1140 km

total time taken= 21 hours

average speed = distance/time

=1140/21

=58.28 km/hour

Answer 2

The speed of the train is 54.28 km/hr

1) The speed of the train can be calculated by dividing the total distance covered by the total time taken by train.

2) The total Distance between the two stations is given as 1140 km

3) The total time taken by train would be 4:45-7:45 = 21 hours

4) Hence the speed of train is 1140/21 or 54.28 km/hr.
