      the speed of 60 km/h. After that, she increases her speed by 40% and takes 2 hours to travel from city 'B' to city 'C'. What is the average speed of Anita while travelling from city 'A' to 'C'?
      A 42.6 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 35.5 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 69.6 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 35.2 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Distance between city 'A' and city 'B' = 60 Γ— 3 = 180 km

      Distance between city 'B' and city 'C' = 60 Γ— 1.4 Γ— 2 = 168 km

      Total distance travelled by Anita = 180 + 168 = 348 km

      Total time taken by Anita = 3 + 2 = 5 hours

      Average speed of Anita = 348 / 5 = 69.6 km/h
