The speed of the train going from Nagpur to Allahabad is 100 km/h while when coming back from Allahabad to Nagpur, its speed is 150 km/h. find the average speed during whole journey. Correct Answer 120 km/hr

$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Average speed}}, \cr & = \frac{{ {2 \times x \times y} }}{{ {x + y} }} \cr & = \frac{{ {2 \times 100 \times 150} }}{{ {100 + 150} }} \cr & = \frac{{ {200 \times 150} }}{{250}} \cr & = 120\,{\text{km/hr}} \cr} $$
