You can put this solution on YOUR website! A train travels for 5 hours.The first half of the distance at 40 kmph and remaining distance at 60 kmph.Find the distance (in km).
---------------
The avg speed for the trip = 2*40*60/(40+60) = 48 km/hr
48 km/hr * 5 hr = 240 km
==================
Check:
120/40 + 120/60 = 3 + 2 = 5 hours
