D Correct answer
Explanation

Let distance be D. Time taken = D/60 and D/64. D/60 - D/64 = 1. (64D - 60D) / 3840 = 1. 4D = 3840. D = 960 km.

AI explanation

Let the distance be D, so the time difference is D/60 minus D/64, which equals 1 hour. Finding a common denominator gives (64D minus 60D) divided by 3840 equals 1, simplifying to 4D equals 3840. Solving for D gives a distance of 960 km.
