Answer:

5.14 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average speed, we simply find the total distance traveled by Tom and divide that by the total time the entire journey took him.

Average speed = (total distance traveled) / (total time taken)

TOTAL DISTANCE TRAVELED

He traveled 3 miles to and 3 miles fro. Hence:

3 + 3 = 6 miles

TOTAL TIME TAKEN

He spent ½ hr to go and ⅔ hr to return back. Hence:

½ + ⅔ = 7/6 hr

Therefore, the average speed is:

v = 6 / (7/6)

v = 36 / 7 = 5.14 mi/h

Tom's average speed was 5.14 mi/h.
