Sanjit drives the 45 km distance between York and Leeds he then drives a further 42 km from Leeds to Blackpool

Leona [12618]

The average speed for his entire journey from York to Blackpool is about 61.41 km/h.

Here’s a breakdown of how we arrive at this:

$\text{ The average speed}=\frac{\text{Total distance covered}}{\text{Total time taken}}$

The distance he travelled from York to Leeds is 45 km,

and the speed during that section was 54 km/h.

Therefore, the time taken to travel from York to Leeds is 45/54 hours (since Time = Distance/Speed).

Next, the distance from Leeds to Blackpool is 42 km,

and the time for that leg of the journey is 35 minutes, which is 35/60 hours.

This leads to the total duration for his trip as

$=\frac{45}{54}+\frac{35}{60}=\frac{450+315}{540}=\frac{765}{540}=\frac{17}{12}$ hours.

The cumulative distance covered equals 45 + 42 = 87 km.

Thus, his average speed is calculated as:

$=\frac{87}{17/12}= \frac{12\times 87}{17}=\frac{1044}{17}=61.4117647\approx 61.41\text{ km per hour}$
