Answer:

50km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Average velocity = change in distance (or distance travelled) divided by/ the change in time (or time taken.)

The change in distance has been given as 100km.

The change in time is 3pm-1pm = 2 hours.

Therefore the average velocity was 100/2 = 50km/h (to the east).

Hope this helped!
