  • Question
  • A Bus travels first half distance between two places with a speed of 40 kmph and the rest half distance with a speed of 60 kmph. The average speed of the Bus is ?


  • Options
  • A. 48 kmph
  • B. 50 kmph
  • C. 46 kmph
  • D. 42 kmph

  • Correct Answer
  • 48 kmph 

    Explanation

    we know that speed = distance traveled/time taken
    let the total distance traveled by the car is 2x km.
    then time taken by it to cover first half is x/60 hour.
    and for second half is x/40 hour.
    Then average speed= total distance travelled / total time taken.

     

    i.e.  2 x x 60 + x 40

     

    =>  2 x 5 x 120

     

    = 48 kmph.
