    Fiona drives 3 1/2 hours on highway = 3.5 hours

    average 60 miles per hour on highway.

    Then 3.5 * 60 = 210 miles

    1 1/2 hours in the city = 1.5 hours

    average 30 miles per hour in city

    Then 1.5 * 30 = 45 miles

    So

    Fiona drives 210 miles on highway and 45 miles in city.

    Total of her trip to her grandmother's house equals:

    210 + 45 = 255 miles

    She drives 3.5 on highway and 1.5 in the city, then total driving should be:

    3.5 + 1.5 = 5 hours

    Average speed for the entire trip:

    255 / 5 = 51 miles
