firstly u have to find the time
that is time = distance/ speed
for 1st path time=1/6
for second path=1/6

average speed = total distance/ Total time
= 1+1/1/6+1/6
=2/1/3=6 km/he is the ans

Hii..
Here is your answer..

Solution:-
Distance travelled 1st time =1km
Speed=6km/h

So,
time = \frac{distance}{speed} \\ = > \frac{1}{6} h
Now,
Distance travelled 2nd time =1km
Speed =12km/h
So,
time = \frac{1}{12} h
So,
Total Distance travelled=1km+1km
 = > 2km
Total time taken =
 = > \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{12} \\ = > \frac{2 + 1}{12} \\ = > \frac{3}{12}
Now,
average \: speed = \frac{total \: distance}{total \: time \: taken} \\ = > \frac{2}{ \frac{3}{12} }
 = > \frac{2 \times 12}{3} \\ = > \frac{24}{3} \\ = > 8
Hence,
Average speed is 8km/h

Hope it helps uh...✌️✌️✌️
