  • Question
  • 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?


  • Options
  • A. 58 km/h
  • B. 63 km/h
  • C. 67 km/h
  • D. 71 km / h

  • 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
