document.write( "A boat traveled 3 hours and covered 96 km. Later that day, the boat went another 80 km in 2.5 hours. Find the average speed of the boat. \r\n" );
document.write( "Solution:\r\n" );
document.write( "Average speed = total distance travelled / total time taken\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Total distance = 96 + 80 = 176 km\r\n" );
document.write( "Total time = 3 + 2.5 = 5.5 hours\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So average speed =  km / h.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Hope this helps :)\r\n" );
