Question 757791: A family on vacation drove 200km in 2 hours and then travelled only 40km for the next hour due to construction. what was the family's average velocity the whole trip? Answer by knighty2002uk(39) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Velocity = Distance/time
Distance = 200+40 = 240km
Time = 2+1 = 3hrs
Velocity = 240/3 = 80kph
