In this question, we have to find the average speed of autorickshaw. So , in order to solve this question, we must know the relationship between speed , distance and time :

ㅤ

$\qquad\qquad{\pmb{\large\mathfrak{\longrightarrow \quad Speed =\dfrac{distance}{time}}\quad \bigstar}}$

ㅤ

Now , we are given that :

ㅤ

• an autorickshaw covers a distance of 380 km in 10 hours after stopping in between for 2 hours .

ㅤ

So, the average speed of autorickshaw can be find by substituting the values of distance as 380km and time taken as 10 hours. But we are mentioned a one more condition that the autorickshaw stopped for 2 hours . Now the total time can be taken as

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ➤ 2 hours + 10 hours

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ➤ 12 hours

ㅤ

On substituting the values :

ㅤ

$\qquad\rm{\dashrightarrow \quad speed =\dfrac{distance}{time}}$

$\qquad\rm{\dashrightarrow \quad speed =\cancel{\dfrac{380}{12}}}$

$\qquad{\pmb{\rm{\dashrightarrow \quad speed =\dfrac{95}{3}km/hr}}}$

ㅤ

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤHence , we get the average speed as 95/3 km/hr .
