In order to calculate the velocity, we can use the formula below:


\text{velocity}=\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}}

If the total distance is 150 km and the amount of time is 1.75 hours, we have:


\begin{gathered} \text{velocity}=(150)/(1.75) \\ \text{velocity}=85.71\text{ km/hr} \end{gathered}

Therefore the velocity is 85.71 km/hr.
