Hello! So, the train travels 80 miles in an hour. 90 minutes is equivalent ot 1 ½ hours. In case you don't know, ½ of 80 is 40. To find the distance gone in 90 minutes, we can just add 80 and 40. 80 + 40 is 120. Another way to solve it is to multiply 80 by 1.5 and you would still get the same answer. There. The train will have gone 120 miles in 90 minutes.
