Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is 50 km/h.
Key Points
- To calculate the average speed, you can use the formula:
- Average Speed \(= {Total \:Distance\over Total \:Time}\)
- In this case, the total distance covered is the difference in odometer readings, which is 2400 km − 2000 km = 400 km
- The total time is given as 8 hours
- Average Speed = 400 km/8 hours
- Average Speed = 50 km/h
- Therefore, the average speed of Ram's car is 50 km/h.
