Ashutosh Anshu  (10 years ago)

By car 240 km at 60 kmph
time taken = 240/60 = 4 hr.

By train 240 km at 60 kmph
time taken = 400/100 = 4 hr.

By bus 240 km at 60 kmph
time taken = 200/50 = 4 hr.

so total time = 4+4+4 = 12 hr.
and total speed = 240+400+200 = 840 km
total speed = 840/12 = 70 kmph(Answer)

sagar gupta  (7 years ago)

average speed=total distance/total time;
average speed=(240+400+200)/(240/60+400/100+200/50);
average speed=840/12;
average speed=70;
