please tell the answer of the question given in the image, please answer AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Q. 2 pedestrians have one bike. They travel as follows: the first one rides the bike for some time, then drops it and continues walking in the same direction, while the second follows him by foot. Eventually, the second one finds the bike and rides it until he overtakes the first one. Then he gives the bike to the first one etc. Assuming that they walk with the same speed and bike faster than they walk, what is the speed of their travel?
(A) Arithmetic mean of the speeds
(B) Geometric mean of the speeds
(C) Harmonic mean of the speeds
(D) Median of the speeds

Dear student
The harmonic mean of the speeds (the reciprocal of the arithmetic mean of the reciprocals) of the walk and bike speeds. This is because both walk and bike equal distances
