s=d/t

Answer:


\boxed{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{ \bold{33 \: km/h}}}}}

Explanation:

Distance ( d ) = 16.5 km

Time ( t ) = 30 minutes

( To convert minutes to hour , divide the minutes by 60)

Time ( t ) =
\sf{ (30)/(60) } =
\sf{0.5} hours

Now, let's find the speed

Speed =
\sf{ (distance \: travelled \: ( \: in \: km))/(time \: taken \: ( \: in \: hrs)) }

plug the values


\sf{ (16.5)/(0.5) }

Calculate


\sf{33 \: km/h}

Hope I helped !

Best regards!!
