A car covers the first 35 Km of its journey in 60 minutes and covers the next 40 Km in 30 minutes.
Formula used:
Average speed = Total distance/ Total time
Calculation
Total distance covered = 35 km + 40 km = 75 km
Total time = 60 minute + 30 minute = 90 min = 1.5 hours
Average speed = Total distance/ Total time
Average speed = 75/1.5 = 50 km/hr
His average speed for the whole journey is 50 km/hr.
