Answer:- The average speed of Harvey the wonder hamster is[tex]12\frac{2}{3}\ km/hour[/tex].


Explanation:-

Given: Distance traveled by Harvey [tex]=3\frac{1}{6}\ km=\frac{19}{6}\ km[/tex]

Time taken[tex]=\frac{1}{4}\ hour[/tex]

[tex]Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\\Rightarrow\ Speed=\frac{\frac{19}{6}}{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\=\frac{19\times4}{6}\\\\=\frac{38}{ 3}\\\\=12\frac{2}{3}\ km/hour[/tex]

Therefore, the average speed of Harvey the wonder hamster is[tex]12\frac{2}{3}\ km/hour[/tex].
