Πρώτο βήμα πάντα βρίσκουμε το συνολικό χρόνο για τη συνολική διαδρομή ,χρησιμοποιώντας συνέχεια ότι
ταχύτητα = απόσταση/χρόνος (u = d/t )
[katex]t_1[/katex] = 30 / 30=1 hour
[katex]t_2[/katex] = 30 / 60 = ½ hour
Oπότε [katex]u_{average}[/katex] = [katex]d_{total}[/katex] / [katex]t_{total}[/katex] [katex]\Rightarrow[/katex]
[katex]U_{av}[/katex] = 60 / 1.5 = 120 / 3 = 40
