Hee hee
This question sounds like the old school question...

"If you take all your vegetables to town to sell and you have 10 turnips, 12 tomatoes, 4 turnips, and three heads of lettuce, how far is it to town?"

But perhaps it is a "fill in the blanks" questions so let me try that - " If the odometer reads 0 at the beginning of a trip and 35 km a half hour later, what is the distance to town?"

I have no clue but you traveled 35 km at 70km/hr.

Its asking what is the "average speed"

Oh, it's a test. Is there a prize? Will you run a survey and tell us all the % who got it right?

I gave my answer - 70km/hr
