Kartik walks from point A to B with 50 km/hr speed and returns from B to A with a speed of 30 km/hr . Find his average speed.

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

When equal distances are traveled at two different speeds, say x and y, the average speed formula is given by: Average Speed = \frac{2 x y}{x + y} Here, x = 50 km/hr and y = 30 km/hr . Average Speed = \frac{2 \times 50 \times 30}{50 + 30} = \frac{3000}{80} = 37.5 km/hr

Try it yourself before checking the explanation above.
