Starting at home, Ishaan traveled uphill to the grocery store for 15 minutes at just 10 mph. He then traveled back home along the same path downhill at a speed of 40 mph. What is his average speed for the entire trip from home to the grocery store and back?

Average speed is equal to total distance divided by total time. Total distance is 5 miles (going and returning). The formula is distance equals speed times time. Try figuring out the rest.
