A Correct answer
Explanation

Speed is defined as distance divided by time. Speed = 40 km / 8 hours = 5 km/hr.

AI explanation

Applying the standard formula where speed equals distance divided by time, we divide the total distance of 40 kilometres by the total time of 8 hours. This calculation results in 40 divided by 8, which equals 5. The speed of the cyclist is 5 km/hr.
