Answer:

20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for distance is

d =rt  where r  is the rate and t is the time

We need to convert the time to hours since the rate is in mph

15 minutes * 1 hour/ 60 minutes = 1/4 hour = .25 hours

d = (80 mph) * .25 hours

d = 20 miles

The train goes 80 miles in an hour which is 60 minutes. 60 minutes divided by 15 minutes equals 4. 80 miles divided by 4 equals 20 miles. The train went 20 miles in 15 minutes.
