Hey friend
here is your answer
I case
distance = 30 km
speed =30 km/hr
so, time = 1 hr

II case
assuming the speed be "x" km/hr
distance =90 km
time =90/x


average  \: speed\:  =  \frac{total \: distance}{ \: total \: time}  \\ 60=  \frac{90 + 30}{1 +  \frac{90}{x} }  \\ 1 +  \frac{90}{x} =  \frac{120}{60}  \\ 1 +  \frac{90}{x} = 2 \\  \frac{90}{x}  = 1 \\ x = 90km {hr}^{ - 1}
so, the speed at II case must be 90 km/hr


glad to help you
hope it helps
thank you.
