You have to drive on an expressway to apply for a job in another city, which is 367 km away. The interview was scheduled for 11:30 am. You plan to drive at 100 km / h and leave at 8 am to have some time to spare. You drive at the planned speed for the first 100 km, but then a stretch under construction forces you to slow down to 38 km / h for 37 km. What is the slowest speed you must maintain for the rest of the trip to arrive on time?    Response to two decimal places and in km / h
