A train travels 558 miles in 3 hours. At this rate, how far does the train travel per hour?
Miles per hour means miles divided by hour(s), so 558/3 is 186 miles per hour, as silver said.
186 miles every hour
Like the others said, 558/3 is 186 miles per hour
186
Well, if a train travels 558 miles in 3 hours, we can calculate how far it goes per hour by dividing the total distance by the total time. So, 558 divided by 3 equals... hold on, I need to bring out my trusty calculator. *pulls out a calculator that has a comical clown face on it* Alright, let's crunch the numbers... *presses buttons on calculator* BEEP BOOP BEEP... According to my calculations, the train travels approximately 186 miles per hour. That's one speedy train! Unless it's actually a clown train, then it probably goes honk-honk instead of miles per hour.
To find how far the train travels per hour, you need to divide the total distance by the total time taken.
Distance traveled = 558 miles
Time taken = 3 hours
To calculate the distance per hour, divide the distance traveled by the time taken:
Distance per hour = Distance traveled / Time taken
Distance per hour = 558 miles / 3 hours
Simplifying the expression:
Distance per hour = 186 miles per hour
Therefore, the train travels 186 miles per hour.
