As per the definition of average speed, it is basically total distance travelled divided by total time taken
Averagespeed=Averagespeed=
Totaldistance/TotaltimeTotaldistance/Totaltime
Here total distance travelled is 20+40= 60Km by the car.
Total time taken is 1+3=4hrs.
Hence the average speed of the car is given by
S = 60/4 = 15Km/hr
Averagespeed=Averagespeed=
Totaldistance/TotaltimeTotaldistance/Totaltime
Here total distance travelled is 20+40= 60Km by the car.
Total time taken is 1+3=4hrs.
Hence the average speed of the car is given by
S = 60/4 = 15Km/hr
