Step-by-step explanation:
Short Answer: 3320 km
Long Answer:
Fact: If the journey is completed in two halves with same time, one at speed x and the other at speed y, then the average speed of the whole journey is (x+y)/2
Here x = 900 and y = 760
Thus average speed for the whole journey is (900+760)/2 = 830 km/h
As total time is 4 hours, the distance traveled is 4 x 830 = 3320 km
