In a swimming race maci swam the first 50 m in 42 seconds . She swam the second 50m in 40 Second . What is Maci's average Speed during the race
--------------------------------------------------

The total distance is 50 + 50 = 100 m.

The total time is 42 + 40 = 82 seconds.

The average speed = total_distance%2Ftotal_time = 100%2F82 m%2Fsecond.
