Question

Brad loves his new motorcycle. He takes it for a spin and travels 70 km in 1.2 h. He then stops to let

everyone admire it for 0.30 h. Finally he zooms off down the highway and travels 100 km. in next 1.0 h.

Calculate motorcycle’s average speed.

Answer 1

Answer:

113.33333333 km/hr

Explanation:

The formula for Average Speed = Distance (Kilometers)/Time(hours)

Total Distance travelled = 70km +100km

= 170km

The Total time is takes to travel that distance = 1.2h + 0.30h + 1h

= 1.50hr

Average speed of the Motorcycle = 170km/1.5hr

= 113.33333333 km/hr
