Train A leaves the station at 1:45 traveling at a constant speed of 65 mph. If it arrives at its destination at 3:15, how many miles did it travel

Explanation:

From 1:45 to 2:15 is a span of 30 minutes, or 30/60 = 1/2 = 0.5 hour.

From 2:15 to 3:15 is a span of 1 hour

In total, the entire duration is 0.5 hr + 1 hr = 1.5 hours

Multiply the speed with the time value to get the distance traveled

distance = rate*time

distance = (65 mph)*(1.5 hrs)

distance = (65*1.5) miles

distance = 97.5 miles
