    7 mph

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since Pilar rode 34 miles before they met, then we can find the distance Ravi rode before they met.

    They started 55 miles away from one another. Therefore, the distance Ravi rode was:

    55 - 34 = 21 miles

    It took both of them 3 hours to meet.

    Average speed is given as total distance divided by total time taken. Mathematically:

    S = D / t

    Therefore, Ravi's average speed is:

    S = 21 / 3 = 7 mph

    His average speed was 7 mph.
