The ratio of the speeds of a car, a jeeps and a tractor is 3 : 5 : 2. The speed of the jeep is 250 per cent of the speed of the tractor and tractor covers 360 km in 12 hours. What is the average speed of car and jeep together?

A) 50 kmph B) 60 kmph

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 60 kmph

Explanation:

Speed of tractor = 360/12 = 30 kmph

Speed of jeep = 250 x 30/100 = 75 kmph

But, given ratio of speed of car, jeep and tractor is 3 : 5 : 2

Speed of car = 3 x 75/5 = 45 kmph
