Correct Answer: $\frac{540}{11}$ km/hr
Solution : Total distance = $\frac{20}{60}×60 + \frac{30}{60}×40 + 1×50= 20 + 20 + 50= 90$ km Total time = $\frac{20}{60} + \frac{30}{60} + 1= \frac{2+3+6}{6}= \frac{11}{6}$ hr Average speed = $\frac{\text{Total distance}}{\text{Total time}}= \frac{90}{\frac{11}{6}}= \frac{540}{11}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{540}{11}$ km/hr.
