As per the question the total distance is given as 4 km.

We are asked to calculate the average speed.

The time taken by the body to travel each kilometre are 5.9 min,6.2 min.,6.3min. and 6 min. respectively.

The average speed of a body is defined as the ratio of total distance travelled by the body to the total time.

Mathematically the average speed is written as _

V= Total distance/Total time

i.e V = S/T

Where S is the total distance travelled and T is the total time

Here total distance (S)= 4 km

The total time T= (5.9+6.2 +6.3+ 6.0 )minutes

=24.4 min.

Hence average speed V = 4 km/24.4 min

= 0.16 km/min.

Hence the correct option is A .

Veronika [31]

Answer:

330 km

55*6= 330 km. An easy formula for this is multiplying time with speed.

Explanation:

330 kilometros

55 * 6 = 330 km. Una fórmula fácil para esto es multiplicar el tiempo por la velocidad.
