A train start...

Question

A train starting from rest travels the first part of its journey with constant acceleration a , second part with constant velocity v, third part with constant retardation a, being bought to rest. The average speed for whole joirney is 7v/8. For what fraction of the total time, the train travels with constant velocity?
