A freight train travel 53.7 miles per hour. About how many miles did the freight train travel in 2.1 hours?
D = RT (Distance = Rate x Times
D = 53.7 * 2.1
D = ?
Try to first multiply it. You should get your answer correct that way. :-)
To find out how many miles the freight train traveled in 2.1 hours, you can multiply its speed of 53.7 miles per hour by the duration of 2.1 hours.
To calculate this, you can use the formula:
Distance = Speed × Time
Substituting the given values:
Distance = 53.7 miles/hour × 2.1 hours
Now, we can calculate the distance:
Distance = 112.77 miles
Therefore, the freight train traveled approximately 112.77 miles in 2.1 hours.
