Unfortunately, the statement of your question is a bit confusing. What do you need to be done? Please provide the details so we could help you.
As we know, average velocity=displacement\total time. The jogger
returned to the starting point so the displacement is 0. Therefore
average velocity=0\2=0 Total average speed = Total distance/Total
time=(8+8)/2=8 km/h

Her average speed is 8.0 km/h, and her average velocity is 0 km/h.
