      Question

      A car was driven for 2.5 hours at a speed of 100 km/h and

      then for 1.5 hours at a speed of 80 km/h. Find the car's average speed for the total journey.
      A 92.5 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 50.5 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 44.5 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 55.8 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Total distance travelled by the car = 100 Γ— 2.5 + 80 Γ— 1.5 = 250 + 120 = 370 km

      Total time taken = 2.5 + 1.5 = 4 hours

      So, average speed = total distance travelled Γ· total time taken = 370 Γ· 4 = 92.5 km/h
