A super train traveled 420 miles in 3 hours. If it maintain the same speed, how far could the train travel in 16 hours?

We conclude that the train can travel 2240 miles in 16 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  super train traveled 420 miles in 3 hours.

Step 1 of 2

Determine distance per hour

Important Tip:

Distance per hour = Distance Covered / Time taken

              = 420 / 3

              = 140 miles per hour

Step 2 of 2

Determine the distance traveled in 16 hours

We already know that a super train travels 140 miles per hour. In other words, the speed of the super train is 140 miles per hour.

Important Tip:

Distance traveled in 16 hours = Distance per hour × 16

                                                 =  140 × 16

                                                 = 2240 miles

Conclusion:

Therefore, we conclude that the train can travel 2240 miles in 16 hours.
