A train covers the first 10 hours of its journey at 24 km/h and the remaining 6 hours at a speed of 60 km/h. What will be the average speed of the train?

Correct option is C

Given
Part 1: 10 hours at 24 km/h
Part 2: 6 hours at 60 km/h

Formula Used
Average Speed = $$\frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total Time}}$$​​

Solution
Distance 1 = 10 $$\times$$​ 24 = 240 km
Distance 2 = 6 $$\times$$​60 = 360 km
Total Distance = 240 + 360 = 600 km
Total Time = 10 + 6 = 16 hours
Average Speed = $$\frac{600}{16}$$​ = 37.5 km/h

Final Answer
So the correct answer is (c)
