    A car moves 300 km at a speed of 45 kmph and then it increases its speed to 60 kmph to travel another 500 km. Find average speed of car.

    A)  \[23\frac{1}{3}\,\,km/h\]           

    B)  \[53\frac{1}{3}\,\,km/h\]

    C)  67 km/h           

    D)  73 km/h

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] Total distance covered = 300 + 500 = 800 km.             Total time taken to cover 800 km \[=\frac{300}{45}+\frac{500}{60}=\frac{20}{3}+\frac{25}{3}=\frac{45}{3}=15\,hr.\] \[\therefore \] \[Average\,\,speed=\frac{800}{15}=\frac{160}{3}=53\frac{1}{3}kmph\]
