The average speed of a plane is eight times as great as the average speed of a train.\r

This problem is definitely not as long, confusing, and complex as one person who responded makes it out to be
\n" );
document.write( "With the speed of the train being S, we get the speed of the plane as 8S
\n" );
document.write( "We then get the following TIME equation: \"matrix%281%2C3%2C+%221%2C050%22%2FS+-+%221%2C050%22%2F%288S%29%2C+%22=%22%2C+8%263%2F4%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "Solve this for S, the speed of the train and you should get: \"highlight_green%28matrix%281%2C2%2C+105%2C+mph%29%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "That's ALL!! You don't have to make a MOUNTAIN out of a MOLEHILL to get the answer! \n" );
