Answer:

53 1/3 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

average speed = (total distance)/(total time)

average speed = distance/time

time * average speed = distance

time = distance/(average speed)

250 km at 75 km/h

distance = 250 km

time = (250 km)/(75 km/h) = 3.33333... hours

350 km at 70 km/h

distance = 350 km

time = (350 km)/(70 km/h) = 5 hours

200 km at 30 km/h

distance = 200 km

time = (200 km)/(30 km/h) = 6.6666...  hour

total distance = 250 km + 350 km + 200 km = 800 km

total time = 3.33333... hours + 5 hours + 6.66666... hours = 15 hours

average speed = (total distance)/(total time)

average speed = (800 km)/(15 hours)

average speed = 53 1/3 km/h

Nitella [24]
For me, I know that this answer would be greater than 10 because for a fact, 621 and 59 aren't just perfect multiples of 10. But I don't know, because all humans don't really think alike. So, your teacher might say this doesn't work. Then in that case, I am very sorry. :0

But in any case, I hope this helps and have a good night! :D
