A train travels a distance of 226 kilometers in 44.5 minutes,Assuming that the train is constant,what is the speed of the train?

Whatever the answer is, it's correct.

Boom when do you need to know the answer to this question (probablly tonight) but anyway if you still need help with it tomorrow I can help you through it but I won't give you the answer without showing you the work which will take me a little (Unless there is some short cut that I am just over looking) And I don't have any time right now

You can use the distance formula D = rt, where D = distance, r = rate or speed and t = time in miles per hour.

You will need to convert minutes to hours BEFORE using the distance formula.

44.5 minutes is how many hours?

44.5 minutes x 1hour/60minutes = 0.742 hours

We now plug and chug.

D = rt

226K = r times 0.742 hours

Divide both sides by 0.742 hours to find r (speed of the train).

Can you take it from here?
