Let the speed of the train be x km/hr. Then
Time taken to travel a distance of 480km=
x
480

Time taken by the train to travel a distance of 480km with the speed (x−8)km/hr=
x−8
480
hr
It is given that if the speed had been 8km/hr less, then the train would have taken 3 hours more to cover the same distance
∴
