Answer 2

Calculation of Travel Time for the "Sapsan" Train

To calculate the travel time for the "Sapsan" train from Moscow to St. Petersburg, we need to subtract the departure time from the arrival time.

The train departed from Moscow at 6:45 AM and arrived in St. Petersburg at 10:30 AM on the same day.

To calculate the travel time, we can subtract the departure time from the arrival time:

Arrival time: 10:30 AM Departure time: 6:45 AM

To subtract the times, we can convert them to a common format, such as minutes:

Arrival time: 10:30 AM = 10 * 60 + 30 = 630 minutes Departure time: 6:45 AM = 6 * 60 + 45 = 405 minutes

Now, we can subtract the departure time from the arrival time:

Travel time = Arrival time - Departure time = 630 minutes - 405 minutes = 225 minutes

To express the travel time in hours, we can divide the total minutes by 60:

Travel time = 225 minutes / 60 = 3.75 hours

Therefore, the "Sapsan" train was in transit for approximately 3.75 hours from Moscow to St. Petersburg.

Please note that the provided answer is based on the given departure and arrival times and assumes no delays or other factors that may affect the travel time.
