1 A train takes 6 hours 39 minutes to travel from New Delhi to Kanpur. The train travels a distance of 429km. Work out the average speed of the train. Give your answer in km/h correct to one decimal place.

To find the average speed of the train, we need to divide the total distance traveled by the total time taken.<br /><br />Given:<br />Total distance traveled = 429 km<br />Total time taken = 6 hours 39 minutes<br /><br />First, let's convert the time taken into hours:<br />39 minutes is equal to $\frac{39}{60}$ hours, which is approximately 0.65 hours.<br /><br />So, the total time taken is 6.65 hours.<br /><br />Now, we can calculate the average speed:<br />Average speed = $\frac{429 \text{ km}}{6.65 \text{ hours}}$<br /><br />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.
