A train traveled 1/5 of the distance between two cities in three quarters of an hour
at this rate what fraction of the distance between the two cities can the train travel in one hour
:
Find the speed of the train in fraction of the distance per hr (speed = dist/time)
%281%2F5%29%2F%283%2F4%29 = %281%2F5%29%2A%284%2F3%29 = 4%2F15 of the distance per hr
