We know, speed = Distance / Time
d = 384,750 Km
t = 2 days, 19.5 hours = 48+19.5 = 67.5 hour

Substitute their values,
s = 384,750 / 67.5
s = 5700 Km/h

In short, Your Answer would be 5700 Km/h

Hope this helps!

Their speed was 5700 km/hour
you will change days to hours by multiplying by 24 and then add it to the 19.5 hours...you will divide the distance by the result to get the speed
