A Train travels at an average speed of 87 kilometres per hour for 6 hours 14 minutes. Calculate the Distance travelled.
Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
speed*time=distance. Your rate units are kilometers per hour and your time is in mixed units of hours and minutes. For simplicity you should decide if you want strictly to change all to hours or all to minutes. 14 minutes is (14/60) of an hour. You might want then hours.

CALCULATION
rate * time, (kilometers/hour)*hours= kilometers.

Again reminder, 14/60 is the fraction of an hour more than 6 hours to be included as given.

=
= kilometers
