we know that,
average speed = total distance covered/total time taken
Based on the information given,
Total distance covered =(30+30)km
= 60 km
The time taken to cover first 30 km=(30/40)
= 3/4 hour
The time taken to cover next 30 km=(30/20)
= 3/2 hour
So, total time taken=(3/4)+(3/2)
=(3+6)/2
= 9/2 hour
So, according to the formula stated above,
The average speed=(60)/(9/2)
=(60*2/9)
=(20*2/3)
= 40/3
= 13.33 km/hr
So, the average speed is 13.33 km/hr
