Answer 1

Answer:

Average speed = 3 km/hr.

        Total distance covered = 6 km

        Total time taken = 2 hours

   

        Therefore by the formula of Speed, we get

     

        Average Speed = Total Distance covered / Total time taken

       Putting values in the  Respective formula

         

         Average speed = 6 / 2

         Average speed = 3 km/hr

         Average speed of the boy is 3 km/hours.
