Question

A train covers the distance between two station which are 11km apart in 12min. At what rate per hours is it traveling?

Answer 1

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


Hope it helps:)
