Solution

Step 1: Given data
Distance covered by Ram from Delhi to Chandigarh (D) $= 250 k m$
Ram started from Delhi at $= 6.00 a . m$
Ram reached Chandigarh at $= 11.00 a . m$
The time is taken by Ram to reach Chandigarh (T) $= 5 h o u r s$

Step 2: Formula used
$A v e r a g e s p e e d = \frac{T o t a l d i s \tan c e (D)}{T o t a l t i m e (T)}$

Step 3: Calculation for average speed
$A v e r a g e s p e e d = \frac{250 k m}{5 h o u r s} A v e r a g e s p e e d = 50 k m / h$
Hence, the average speed of Ram traveling from Delhi to Chandigarh is = $50 k m / h$
