A train is traveling at a constant speed and goes 17 kilometers in 8 minutes. How far will the train travel in 60 minutes.

Distance B = 1275 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two distances and time be A and B respectively.

Given the following data;

Distance A = 17 kilometers.

Time A = 8 minutes.

Distance B =?

Time B = 60 minutes.

First of all, we would find the constant speed;

Speed = distance/time

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Speed = 17/8

Speed = 2.125 km/m

Now, to find the distance B;

Distance B = speed * time

Distance B = 2.125 * 60

Distance B = 1275 km
