Question

a train travels 99 kilometers in 3 hours, and then 80 kilometers in 5 hours. What is it’s average speed?

Answer 1

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Total distance covered = (99km + 80km) = 179 km

Time to cover the distance = 8 hours

Average speed = (179km / 8hours)

Average speed = 22.375 km/hour
