Q. A vehicle travels 120 km in 2 hours and then 180 km in 3 hours. What is the overall average speed?
A.
60 km/h
B.
70 km/h
C.
80 km/h
D.
90 km/h
Show solution
Solution
Total distance = 120 km + 180 km = 300 km. Total time = 2 hours + 3 hours = 5 hours. Average speed = Total distance / Total time = 300 km / 5 hours = 60 km/h.
Correct Answer:
B
— 70 km/h
