Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed be x
(20*40+x*80)/120=40
80(x+10)=40*120
x+10=60
x=50
Hence it should run with 50kmph for the rest of the distance

Answer:
80km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
let the speed for remaining distance be xkm/h
remai ning dist.= 80km
total journey avg speed = 40
distance = 120
time = 120/40 = 3hr
distance already traveled is 40 km witha speed of 20km/hr so the time is 40/20 = 2 hr
time left = 1 hr
distance left is 80 km
speed = 80/1 = 80km/hr
