Answer:

82 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A boat sailed 560 km in 8 hrs. It took three hours to travel the first 150 km. That is,

The remaining distance will be:

560 - 150 = 410 km

the remaining time will be:

8 - 3 = 5 hours

For the remaining Journey, average speed will be:

Speed = distance/time

Speed = 410/5

Speed = 82 km/h

Therefore, the average speed for the remaining journey will be 82 km/h
