Question

A train travels 68 kilometers in 2 hours, and then 64 kilometers in 3 hours. What is its average speed

Answer 1

Average speed is the distance traveled by an object in total and divided by the amount of time an object covers the distance. The formula is -
Average speed = total distance traveled / total time taken
= 68km+64km / 2 hrs.+3hrs.
= 132km / 5hrs.
= 26.4km/hr.
Therefore, the train's average speed is 26.4km/hr.
