Answer : 1. "48 kmph"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 48 kmph Explanation: we know that speed = distance traveled/time takenlet the total distance traveled by the car is 2x km.then time taken by it to cover first half is x/60 hour.and for second half is x/40 hour.Then average speed= total distance travelled / total time taken.   i.e. 2xx60+x40   => 2x5x120   = 48 kmph.
