Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C. 36 km/hr36 किमी/घंटा

Explanation

Return speed = 30 × 1.5 = 45 km/hr. For equal distances, average speed = 2 × 30 × 45 / (30 + 45) = 2700/75 = 36 km/hr.वापसी की गति = 30 × 1.5 = 45 किमी/घंटा। समान दूरियों के लिए औसत गति = 2 × 30 × 45 / (30 + 45) = 2700/75 = 36 किमी/घंटा।
