Answer:

  86 cm

The total length of the engine and cars is ...

  engine length + 6 × boxcar length

  = (14 cm) + 6×(11 cm) = 80 cm

For a train with 7 cars, there will be 6 spaces, so the total length of the train is ...

  length of cars + length of spaces

  = 80 cm + 6×(1 cm) = 86 cm . . . . length of train
