Question

Katy was driving to a concert with her friend. The concert was
150 miles away, and she made it there in 3 hours. How many
miles per hour was Katy travelling on her way to the concert?

Answer 1

Average speed was 50 mph, disregarding startup and parking time...in practice, she would have had to have reached a higher top speed, during this trip because it's impossible to travel at a uniform speed throughout a trip.

Answer 2

50 miles per hour

 

150/3 = 50
