Since the distances were the same you can find the average speed directly by adding the speeds then dividing by 2. No need to weight anything.
If we’re considering speed regardless of direction, the average speed is:
(24 + 16) / 2 = 40 / 2 = 20mph
However if direction matters, then one number has to be negative since the directions are opposite:
(24 - 16) / 2 = 8 / 2 = 4mph (in the positive direction)
Depending on the context, either of these could be your answer.
The lowest common denominator of the two fractions is 4 because it is the smallest number that both fractions can be transformed into. 3/2 is multiplied by 2 to create 6/4 which can be added to 11/4.

Answer:
I believe it's 22/15
Step-by-step explanation:
17x -6 + 3x - 5 = 1x + 11 + 4x first you add the 17x and 3x and 1x and the 4x
which it would be: 20x - 6 -5 = 5x + 11;
20x - 11 = 5x + 11,
-5 -5
15x - 11 = 11
+11 +11
15x = 22
15 15 Divide
x = 22/15
Hope my answer has helped you if not i'm sorry.
