Question 1020314: A train passes city X at 8.25 am and city Y at 11.05 am. The distance between city X and Y is 320 miles. What is the average speed in miles per hour of the train? Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi there,
11.05 - 8.25 = 2 hrs 40 mins
2 hrs 40 mins = 2.67hrs
Speed = Distance/Time
Speed = 320/2.67
Speed = 119.85 mph
Hope this helps :-)
