Initial reading = 24803 km

Final reading = 25118 km

The speedometer reading at the start of the journey and at the end of the journey was noted by Kamini and the total time was also noted, the average speed is given by,

Total time = 4 hr and 40 min

{tex}Average \ speed = \frac {Total \ distance}{Total \ time}{/tex}

Total distance = Final reading – Initial reading  

Total distance = 25118 – 24803

Total distance = 315 km

Total time = 4 hr 40 min

{tex}Total\ time = 4hr + (\frac {40}{60}) hr{/tex}

Total time = 4.67 hr

{tex}Average \ speed = \frac {315}{4.67}{/tex}

Average speed = 67.45 km/hr
