Dear student

$T o t a l d i s \tan c e = 240 k m T o t a l t i m e = 6 h r s D i s \tan c e c o v e r e d a f t e r 100 k m = 240 - 100 = 140 k m T i m e t a k e n t o c o v e r r e m a i n i n g d i s \tan c e = 6 h o u r s - 2 h r s 30 m i n = 3 h r 30 m i n = 3.5 h r A v e r a g e s p e e d = \frac{140 k m}{3.5 h r} = 40 k m / h r$
