Question 910328: A train travels at a speed of 153 km/h.Without including time spent at station.If we include spend stations the speed drops 72 km/h.How much time does the train spent at stations per hour.? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Re TY
153mi is the distance traveled in 1hr w/o stopping at the station.
w/o stopping at the station...
avg mph = total distance /total time
x time spent at the station(s) | Cross Multiplying to solve
72 + 72x = 153
72x = 81
x = 81/72 = 9/8 = 1.125hr = 1 1/8 hr,time spent at the stations per hour traveling.
checking: traveling for 2 hrs for ex = 72kmph
