Explanation:

The average speed is 42 km/hr.

To calculate the average speed, you divide the total distance by the time it took to travel that distance:

189 km / 4.5 hours = 42 km/hr

\texttt{speed}=(d)/(t)

distance = 189 km

time = 4.5 hours


\texttt{speed}=(189)/(4.5)


\fbox{speed = 42 km/hr}
