A caterpillar crawls to a vegetable patch at 42 inches per hour.

After eating its way through numerous cabbage leaves, it returns, over exactly the same distance, at only 14 inches per hour.

What is the caterpillars average speed over the entire journey?

I believe the answer would be 10.5 inches per hour.
