A train travels 325 km in 3.5 hours and 470 km in 4 hours. Find the average speed of train ?

107 kmph
106 kmph
72 kmph
76 kmph

Correct Answer: 106 kmph

Explanation:

As we know that Speed = Distance / Time
for average speed = Total Distance / Total Time Taken
Thus, Total Distance = 325 + 470 = 795 km
Thus, Total Speed = 7.5 hrs
Average Speed = 795/7.5 => 106 kmph.
