A driver traveled from Haifa to Eilat. He covered a third of the distance at a speed of 75 kph (kilometers per hour), a fifth of the remaining distance in one hour, and the rest of the distance at a speed of 80 kph. The distance between Haifa and Eilat is 450 kilometers. If the driver had driven the entire distance at a constant speed, at what speed would he have needed to drive so that the journey from Haifa to Eilat would take exactly the same amount of time?
(1) 70 kph
(2) 75 kph
(3) 80 kph
(4) 90 kph
(5) 100 kph
Kudos for the right answer and explanation

Total distance = 450km
Part 1 : one third of distance(150km) with 75kmph , total time taken = 2hrs
Part 2 : a fifth of the remaining distance(15300 = 60km), in 1 hour
Part 3 : rest of the distance (240km) with 80kmph , total time taken = 3hrs
Total time taken = 6hrs
Speed = distancetime = 4506 = 75kmph
Answer B
Part 1 : one third of distance(150km) with 75kmph , total time taken = 2hrs
Part 2 : a fifth of the remaining distance(15300 = 60km), in 1 hour
Part 3 : rest of the distance (240km) with 80kmph , total time taken = 3hrs
Total time taken = 6hrs
Speed = distancetime = 4506 = 75kmph
Answer B
