Taxi goes 261 km in 135 minutes.
We need speed in KM/HR
The distance is given in Km, but the time is NOT in hours. We convert minutes to hours as shown below:
![135\min *(1hr)/(60\min )=(135)/(60)hr=2.25hr](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/spszitlgx2pojxleiij7fq38q34ezbpal3.png)
Now, we can use Distance Formula to solve for the speed:
D = RT
Where
D is distance [given as 261 km]
R is speed [what we want to find]
T is time [2.25 hours]
Thus,
![\begin{gathered} D=RT \\ 261=R(2.25) \\ R=(261)/(2.25) \\ R=116\frac{\operatorname{km}}{hr} \end{gathered}]()
Average Speed = 116 kilometers per hour
