A train starting from rest travels the first part of its journey with constant acceleration $a$ , second part with constant velocity $v$ and third part with constant retardation $a$ , being brought to rest. The average speed for the whole journey is $\frac{{7v}}{8}$. The train travels with constant velocity for $…$ of the total time
