A plane flies a distance of 300 kilometres without stopping and takes 1½hours. What is the average speed of the plane in kilometres per hour

1 answer

To find the average speed, we divide the distance traveled by the time taken.

The distance traveled is 300 kilometers and the time taken is 1½ hours, or 1.5 hours.

Average speed = distance / time = 300 km / 1.5 hours = 200 km/hour

Therefore, the average speed of the plane is 200 kilometers per hour.
