Answer:
Answer:
Speed(s)=distance(d)/time(t)
Let us assume the total distance travelled to be 3x.
So the car travels x distance with each speed.
Since, s=d/t,
t=d/s
So the total time taken would be
T=x/40 + x/50 + x/60
Total distance, D=3x
Avg speed = D/T = 3x/( x/40 + x/50 + x/60 )
Cancel x from numerator and denominator and solve for average speed.
