    53.5 km/h

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Average speed = distance / time

    Total time in hours = 30/60 + 12/60 + 45/60 + 15/60

    = 0.5 + 0.2 + 0.75 + 0.25

    = 1.7 hours

    Distance = Speed / time

    Total distance covered = (0.5*80) + (0.2*105) + (0.75*40)

    = 40 + 21 + 30

    = 91 km

    Average speed of the entire trip = 91/1.7

    = 53.5 km / h
