A train left for Houston, and 7 hours later, a car traveling 62 mph tried catching up to the train. After 4 hours, the car caught up. What was the train's average speed?

Respuesta :

Answer: 22.55 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of the train be n

4 × 62 = 248 which is the distance travelled by the car in 4 hours and the train travelled in 11 hours

11 × n = 248

11n = 248

n = 248/11

n = 22.55mph
