Hi there!

To find the average speed of a moving object all you need to do is divide the distance traveled by the object by amount of time it took the object to reach its final destination. So for this problem it would go like this:

325 : 5 = 65

So for this problem in particular the answer is 65 MPH was the average speed of the train.
