Answer 1

Answer: 100km/hr

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that Zia was driving his truck on the super highway and his speed was recorded by the motorway camera between 6:00am to 8:30am and that he covered a distance of 250km during this time.

Average speed is calculated as distance taken divided by the time used. The time used in this question will be: 8.30am - 6:00am = 2.5 hours.

Speed = Distance/Time

= 250/2.5

= 100km/hour
