96 km/h

- To find the average speed, use the formula: $Average Speed = \frac{Total Distance}{Total Time}$ .

- Total distance for the round trip is $360 km \times 2 = 720 km$ .

- Time from Delhi to Jaipur: $\frac{360}{80} = 4.5 hours$ .

- Time from Jaipur to Delhi: $\frac{360}{120} = 3 hours$ .

- Total time for the trip is $4.5 + 3 = 7.5 hours$ .

- Calculating average speed: $\frac{720}{7.5} \approx 96 km/h$ .

- Option 4: 96 km/h is the correct answer.
