Q.

You drive to the store at 20 kmph and return by the same route at 30 kmph. Discounting the time spent at the store, what was your average speed ?

View Answer

Correct choice: B

Explanation:

Average speed=total distance/total time Let distance to store be K then, total time =(K/20)+(K/30)=K/12 and, total time =(2K) so average speed= 2K / (K/12) = 24kmph.
