Question

Lily took 6 hours to complete a journey at an average speed of 58 km/h. For the first 4 hours, she travelled at an average speed of 64 km/h. What was the distance for the rest of the journey?

Answer 1

92km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Duration of the journey = 6hrs

Average speed = 58km/hr

Now, let us find the total distance of the journey;

Distance = Speed x time

Distance = 58 x 6 = 348km

So;

Average speed for the first 4hrs = 64km/hr

Time = 4hrs

Distance = 64 x 4 = 256km

For the rest of the journey, the student will cover;

= 348km - 256km

= 92km
