Step-by-step solution

2 steps

To solve this, first calculate the train's speed, then use that speed to find the time for the new distance.

  1. Calculate Speed

    Speed = Distance / Time
    Speed = 60 miles / 1.5 hours = 40 miles per hour

  2. Calculate Time for 200 miles

    Time = Distance / Speed
    Time = 200 miles / 40 miles per hour = 5 hours

    It will take the train 5 hours to travel 200 miles at the same speed.
