Prasad goes 96 kilometres on a bike at a speed of 16 km/h, 124 kilometres at 31 km/h in a car, and 105 kilometres at 7 km/h in a horse cart.
Calculations:
Total distance
= 96 + 124 + 105
= 325 km
Total time
= 96/16 + 124/31 + 105/7
= 6 + 4 + 15
= 25
Average speed
= total distance/total time taken
= 325/25
= 13 km/h
Hence, The Required value is 13 Km/h.
