b.If a train takes 40 minutes to travel from Town A to Town B, what is its speed in kilometers per minute. Round your answer to 1 decimal place.

 

Thanks!

a. If the train travels at 60km/hr, it travels at 1 km/min.  So...it takes 45 min to go from A to B.

b. We can find the rate by dividing the Distance by the Time   ...   so ....

45km / 40 min  = 1.125 km/min = 1.1 km/min  (rounded)
