SSC CGL - 24 July 2023 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q51

A car covers a distance of 350 km in 5 hours and covers another 450 km at a speed of 90 km/h. What is the average speed (in km/h) of the car?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 80.

Time for the second part of the journey = 450/90 = 5 hours

Total distance = 350 + 450 = 800 km

Total time = 5 + 5 = 10 hours

Average speed = 800/10 = 80 km/h

Therefore, the average speed of the car is 80 km/h.
