Cevap

To find the average speed of the train, we need to divide the total distance traveled by the total time taken.Given:Total distance traveled = 429 kmTotal time taken = 6 hours 39 minutesFirst, let's convert the time taken into hours:39 minutes is equal to hours, which is approximately 0.65 hours.So, the total time taken is 6.65 hours.Now, we can calculate the average speed:Average speed = Dividing 429 by 6.65 gives us approximately 64.8, the average speed of the train is 64.8 km/h, correct to one decimal place.
