Question: 1 / 400

A train travels 60 miles in 1 hour. How far does it travel in 2.5 hours?

120 miles

150 miles

180 miles

To find out how far the train travels in 2.5 hours, start by recognizing the speed of the train, which is 60 miles per hour. The distance covered can be calculated by multiplying speed by time.

First, calculate the distance for the full hours. In 2 hours, the train would travel:

60 miles/hour × 2 hours = 120 miles.

Next, determine the distance covered in the additional 0.5 hours (or half an hour):

60 miles/hour × 0.5 hours = 30 miles.

Now, add the distances traveled in both parts of the journey:

120 miles + 30 miles = 150 miles.

This means the correct distance the train travels in 2.5 hours is 150 miles, which corresponds to the second option. The other choices do not match the calculations based on the train's constant speed over the given time.
