A train travels 2 km per minute. What is the train’s speed in miles per hour? There are about 1.6 kilometers in 1 mile. 60 minutes in 1 hour. Round to the nearest tenth. Do not label.
150 miles per hour
225 miles per hour
75 miles per hour
3.2 miles per hour
To find the train's speed in miles per hour, we need to convert kilometers to miles and minutes to hours.
First, we can find the train's speed in kilometers per hour:
2 km/min * 60 min/hr = 120 km/hr
Next, we can convert kilometers to miles:
120 km/hr / 1.6 km/mi ≈ 75 miles per hour
Therefore, the train's speed is approximately 75 miles per hour. So the correct answer is 75 miles per hour.
