Answer:


\boxed {\tt s=133 (1)/(3) \ or \ 133.333333 \ km/hr}

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find speed, so we can use the following formula.


s=(d)/(t)

where
d is the distance traveled and
t is the time.

We traveled 400 kilometers in 3 hours. Therefore,


d= 400 \ km \\t= 3 \ hrs

Substitute the values into the formula.


s=(400 \ km )/(3 \ hrs)

Divide


s= 133.33333 \ km/hr


s= 133 (1)/(3) \ km/hr

The speed is 133 1/3 or 133.33333 kilometers per hour.
