Correct Answer - Option 3 : 48 kmph
Given
Speed of train in starting = 40 km/hr
Formula Used
Average speed = 2 × S1 × S2/(S1 + S2)
Calculation
Speed of return journey = 40 + 40 × 50/100 = 60 km/hr
Average speed = 2 × 40 × 60/100 = 48 km/hr
∴ The average speed of man is 48 km/hr
This formula is used only when the distance covered is same for both cases.
