A car travels 20 km in 11 hours. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 1.8181818 km/h.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    Write down what you know: distance d = 20 km, time t = 11 hours. You are asked for the speed v.

  2. 2

    Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:

    v=dt=2011=2011=1.8181818v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{20}{11} = \frac{20}{11} = 1.8181818
  3. 3

    Answer with the unit: 1.8181818 km/h.

  4. 4

    The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (1.8181818 × 11 = 20 km) and time = distance ÷ speed (20 ÷ 1.8181818 = 11 hours).
