A train traveled 3/5 of the distance between two cities in 1/4 of an hour. At this rate, what fraction of the distance between the two cities can the train travel in one hour
You know 1/4 of an hour you travel of 3/5 of distance, so let’s set an proportion: 1/4 hr = 3/5 of distance, multiply 4 on both sides, and you get 2 2/5 distance. Hope this helps!
