A car travels 210 miles in 1 hour. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 210 mph.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    Write down what you know: distance d = 210 miles, time t = 1 hour. You are asked for the speed v.

  2. 2

    Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:

    v=dt=2101=210v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{210}{1} = 210
  3. 3

    Answer with the unit: 210 mph.

  4. 4

    The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (210 × 1 = 210 miles) and time = distance ÷ speed (210 ÷ 210 = 1 hour).
