Jory drives his car to work 120 km away. It takes him 2 hours to complete the trip.

What was his average speed for the trip?  (2 marks)

Show Answers Only

\(60\ \text{km/h}\)

Show Worked Solution
\(\text{Speed}\) \(=\dfrac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}\)
  \(= \dfrac{120}{2}\)
  \(=60\)

  \(\therefore \ \text{Jory was travelling at 60 km/h.}\)
