If a train travels at an average speed of 80 miles per hour and takes 5 hours to reach its destination, how far apart are the starting point and the destination?

To find the distance between the starting point and the destination, we can use the formula:

Distance = Speed × Time

Given that the average speed of the train is 80 miles per hour and the time taken is 5 hours, plug the values into the formula:

Distance = 80 miles/hour × 5 hours
                = 400 miles

So, the distance between the starting point and the destination is 400 miles.
