The average speed is the ratio between the distance covered, and the time elapsed to cover that distance.

The total distance is the sum of the three distances covered:

d = 80km+50km+40km = 170km

Similarly, the total time elapsed is

1h + 0.5h + 0.25h = 1.75h

So, althought you didn't always travelled with the same speed, you globally covered 170km in 1.75 hours. This leads to an average speed of

\dfrac{170\text{km}}{1.75\text{h}} \approx 97.14 \dfrac{\text{km}}{\text{h}}

What is 0.68 expressed as a fraction in simplest form? Both the 6 and the 8 repeat.
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

68/99

Step-by-step explanation:

.68686868686 repeating

Let x= .68686868668repeating

Multiply by 100

100x = 68.686868686repeating

Subtract x = .68686868repeating from this equation

100x = 68.686868686repeating

-x = .68686868repeating

------------------------------------------

99x = 68

Divide each side by 99

99x / 99 = 68/99

x = 68/99
