Question

Trey 和妈妈在铁路道口停下来让火车通过。火车刚开始通过时，Trey 在前十秒数到六节车厢。火车以恒定速度完全通过道口用了二分四十五秒。下列哪一个最可能是这列火车的车厢数？

Trey and his mom stopped at a railroad crossing to let a train pass. As the train began to pass, Trey counted 6 cars in the first 10 seconds. It took the train 2 minutes and 45 seconds to clear the crossing at a constant speed. Which of the following was the most likely number of cars in the train?

文字解答：

$2$ 分 $45$ 秒等于 $2 \cdot 60 + 45 = 165$ 秒。因为 $10$ 秒通过 $6$ 节车厢，所以设 $165$ 秒通过 $x$ 节车厢，满足 $\dfrac{6}{10}=\dfrac{x}{165}.$

解得最接近的选项是 $100$ 。 $x=\dfrac{165\cdot6}{10}=99.$

所以正确答案是 C。

Converting $2$ minutes and $45$ seconds into seconds, we get $2 \cdot 60 + 45 = 165$ seconds. Since $6$ cars passed in $10$ seconds, at the same rate the number of cars $x$ passing in $165$ seconds satisfies $\dfrac{6}{10}=\dfrac{x}{165}.$

Solving gives $x=\dfrac{165\cdot6}{10}=99.$ The closest answer choice is $100$ .

Thus, C is the correct answer.
