A car travels 150 km in 7 hours. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 21.428571 km/h.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    Write down what you know: distance d = 150 km, time t = 7 hours. You are asked for the speed v.

  2. 2

    Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:

    v=dt=1507=1507=21.428571v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{150}{7} = \frac{150}{7} = 21.428571
  3. 3

    Answer with the unit: 21.428571 km/h.

  4. 4

    The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (21.428571 × 7 = 150 km) and time = distance ÷ speed (150 ÷ 21.428571 = 7 hours).
