Mary starts from her house, walks 80 meters south, and stops to chat with her aunt on the sidewalk. After chatting for a few minutes, she walks 125 meters to the west to meet a friend and then walks 45 meters north with her friend to a cafe for lunch. Overall, she takes 10 minutes to do all this. What is Mary’s average speed?

Respuesta :

(80+125+45) / 10 = 250/10 =25
25 meters per minute= 0.41 meters/second

the direction and stopping time is irrelevant to the problem.
