Question

A train covers the distance between two station which are 11 km apart in 12 minutes. At what rate per hour is it travelling? Explain step by step with statements

Answer 1

Hello mate,

Here is your answer,

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Distance covered by the train= 11km

Time taken to cover the distance= 12 mins

Now, lets convert the time into hours

12 mins= (12/60) hrs

            = 1/5 hours

The rate at which the train is travelling per hour is= distance covered/ time

= 11km/(1/5) hours

= 55km/hr

Hence, the train is travelling at a rate of 55km/hour.
