You can put this solution on YOUR website! s = d / t
t = d / s
---
outbound:
ta = d / s
ta = 180/70
---
return:
tb = d / s
tb = 180/60
---
total time:
ta + tb = (180/70) + (180/60)
ta + tb = 5.5414286 hours
---
average speed:
s = d / t
s = (2)(180) / (ta + tb)
s = (360) / (5.5414286)
---
s = 64.615 kph
