Answer:
He began at 2:25 ... and walked half an hour... then he reached the bus stop at 2:25 + 0.30
= 2:35 ... as he waited 20 minutes for a bus, the bus began at 2:35 + 0.10 = 2:45
As the bus reached at the starting point at 3:15, then it spent 3:15 - 2:45 = 30 minutes ... the same tame as the man spent.. the average speed of the bus is the same: 3 miles per hour. OK!
Note... the answer is 3 miles per hour if the way of the bus has the same distance of the way used by the man... this was not explained in the question. OK!
