    Question

    A cyclist has to cover 180 km. She rides the first 20%

    at 25 kmph, half of the distance at 30 kmph, and the remainder at 20 kmph. What is her approximate average speed?
    A 32.73 kmph Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 25.06 kmph Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 95.06 kmph Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 47.06 kmph Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Time for the first segment at 25 kmph = (180 ├Ч 0.20) / 25 = 1.44 hours Time for the second segment at 30 kmph = (180 ├Ч 1/2) / 30 = 3 hours Distance for the third segment = 180 - (180 ├Ч 0.20) - (180 ├Ч 1/2) = 180 - 36 - 90 = 54 km Time for the third segment at 20 kmph = 54 / 20 = 2.7 hours Average speed = 180 / (1.44 + 3 + 2.7) тЙИ 32.73 kmph
