Answer 1

0.255..m/s is the average speed

Answer 2

Let convert 39 min into hour = 0.65 hours
Total Distance covered by the driver = 1088 - 1052                                                                                                    =  36 km 

Average Speed  = Total distance ÷ Total time
                           = 36 ÷ 0.65 
                           = 3600 ÷ 65
                           = 55.38 km/h
