Question 870541: Francisco drives to work, which is 23 miles away, at a speed of 40 miles per hour. He drives home from work at a speed of 60 miles per hour. What is Francisco's average speed overall? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Average speed is always ( total distance ) / ( total time )
Total distance = mi
---------------
----------------------- hrs
( total distance ) / ( total time ) =
( total distance ) / ( total time ) =
( total distance ) / ( total time ) = mi/hr
