A car during its journey travels 30 min at a speed of 40 km/h, another 45 min at a speed of 60 km/h and 2 h at a speed of 70 km/h. Find its average speed?

Correct Answer: 63 km/h

Explanation:

Average speed = [(30/60) x 40 + (45/60) x 60 + (2 x 70)] / [(30/60) + (45/60) + 2]
= (20 + 45 + 140)/[(30 + 45 + 120)/60]
= (205/195) x 60 km/h
= 63.07 km/h
= 63 km/h
