For the third time...
How long did it take you to do the first mile at 30mph?
How much time do you have to take, in total, if you are to do 2 miles at an average of 60mph?
Does the answer annoy you?

No, no & no.
30mph - it takes you two minutes to do a mile right? There's no way you can now do 2 miles in total and average 60Mph.
It's not that hard

It can be done, but only if you're driving a heavily modded DeLorean.

2 Mile journey, to average 60mph you must travel a mile a minute, thus the journey must take no longe that 2 minutes
By travelling at 30mph it will take you 2 minutes to complete 1 mile, resulting in having no time left to complete the second mile.

There are some thick people in here
MPH is a distance over time you can't go changing the time or distance to make the answer fit the question
Think of it this way, if it was a racing game and you had to reach the finish line in in 2 mins to have an average speed of 60mph
But the first mile is done at half the required speed (30mph) so thus takes twice the time you are required to do the fist mile so you are out of time so to speak by the time you reach the halfway point.

30mph = 120 seconds for the first mile.
90mph = 45 seconds for the second mile.
165 seconds to cover 2 miles, divided by miles traveled = 82.5 seconds per mile.
82.5 seconds per mile = Not 60mph

Indeed. Therefore the correct answer is 88 MPH.
