A train goes at a constant speed. It can travel 150 miles in 2 hours. What distance would it travel in 7 hours?
To find the distance the train would travel in 7 hours, we need to set up a proportion.
Since the train can travel 150 miles in 2 hours, we can set up the proportion:
150 miles / 2 hours = x miles / 7 hours
To find x, we can cross multiply and solve for x:
2 * x = 150 * 7
2x = 1050
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we get:
x = 1050 / 2
x = 525
Therefore, the train would travel 525 miles in 7 hours.
