Question

A snapshot of three racing cars is shown in the diagram. All three cars start the race at the same time, at the same place, and move along a straight track. As they approach the finish line, which car has the lowest average speed?

Answer 1

Answer:

The car furthest from the finish line: Car III (Choice C).

Explanation:

It's asking for lowest average speed throughout the entire race. Therefore, whoever is last technically has the lowest average speed.

Car III is far behind Car I and Car II so Choice A and B aren't correct. Choice D is incorrect since the three cars aren't in the same position. Choice E is incorrect because there is enough information to see that Choice C has the lowest average speed.
