The average speed of a train running at a speed of 30 km/hr during the first 100 kilometres, at 40 km/hr during the second 100 kilometres and at 50 km/hr during the last 100 kilometres is nearly?
[ "39.2 km/hr", "38.3 km/hr", "40.0 km/hr", "None of these" ]
B
Time taken to cover first 100 kilometres = 100/3 = 3(1/3) hours Time taken to cover second 100 kilometres =100/40 = 2(1/2) hours Time take to cover last 100 kilometres = 100/2 = 2 hours Total distance covered = 300 km. Total time taken = 47/6 hours Thus, average speed = 300/(47/6) = 38.3 km/hr. ANSWER:B
