It takes 6 hours and 30 minutes for a train traveling from washington dc to arrive in boston massachusetts. if the two stations are 455 mile apart write and solve an equation to find the average speed of the train in miles per hour.

70 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the miles per hour you must set up an equation and put the total miles traveled over how long it took to cover that distance.

455 miles/ 6 and a half (6.5) hours

From there, you can simply divide.

455/6.5 = 70

Thus, you get 70 miles an hour.

You can check this by multiplying 70 by 6.5 to get 455.
