Solution

Find the speed of the train
Given,
Distance between two stations $= 240 K m$
Time taken by the train $= 4 h o u r s$
From, the relation
$s p e e d = \frac{D i s \tan c e}{T i m e}$
So, the speed of the train is $= \frac{240}{4} = 60 \frac{K m}{h r}$
Hence, the speed of the train is $60 \frac{K m}{h r}$ .
