During a 40 mile trip, Malra traveled at an avg. speed of x miles an hour for the first y miles of the trip and at an avg speed of 1.25x miles an hour for the last 40-y miles of the trip. The time that Marla took to travel the 40 miles was what % of the time it would have taken her if she traveled at an avg speed of x miles an hour for the entire trip?
1) x = 48
2) y = 20
1) x = 48
2) y = 20

1) x = 48
2) y = 20
time to travel the 40 miles = ( 0.25y+40) / 1.25x
if condition time = 40/x
divide one by two you end up with
(40+0.25y ) / 1.25...........
