A fast cargo van handles 360 km at 45 km/h and another 240 km at 60 km/h. Find the overall average speed.
A. 50 km/h
B. 54 km/h
C. 52 km/h
D. 48 km/h
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Total distance = 360 + 240 = 600 km. Time for first part = 360 / 45 = 8 hours. Time for second part = 240 / 60 = 4 hours. Total time = 8 + 4 = 12 hours. Average speed = 600 / 12 = 50 km/h.
