While driving, Carl notices that his odometer reads 25,952 miles, which happens to be a palindrome. He thought this was pretty rare, but 2.5 hours later, his odometer reads as 36,563 miles, anoher palindrome. What was Carl's average speed during those 2.5 hours

Respuesta :

Carl's average speed was 4244 miles/hr during those 2.5 hours

First, the odometer showed palindromic no. 25952 miles

after 2.5 hours odometer showed the next palindromic no. is 36563.

hence the distance covered in 2.5 hours = 36563 - 25952 = 110611 miles.

Now, we have to find the average speed with the distance covered 110611 miles in a particular time of 2.5 hours.

Using formula,

average speed = total distance / total time

                    [tex]\frac{10611}{2.5}[/tex] =4244 miles/hour is the average speed

Hence, Carl's average speed was 4244 miles/hr during those 2.5 hours
