Question 995948: when david and his family visited his granparents they drove 261 miles round-trip. the drive to his grandparents house took 2.5 hours what was their avareage speed in miles per hour Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Average speed is found by dividing total distance by total time..here that is
v = 261 miles/2.5 hours
v = 104.4 miles per hour
If the one-way time was 2.5 hours, then
v = 261 miles/5 hours
v = 52.2 miles per hour (certainly more realistic)
