A car travels 180 km in 11 hours. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 16.363636 km/h.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    Write down what you know: distance d = 180 km, time t = 11 hours. You are asked for the speed v.

  2. 2

    Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:

    v=dt=18011=18011=16.363636v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{180}{11} = \frac{180}{11} = 16.363636
  3. 3

    Answer with the unit: 16.363636 km/h.

  4. 4

    The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (16.363636 × 11 = 180 km) and time = distance ÷ speed (180 ÷ 16.363636 = 11 hours).
