A car travels 220 km in 1 hour. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 220 km/h.

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{220}{1} = 220\ \text{km/h}

How to work it out

1
Write down what you know: distance d = 220 km, time t = 1 hour. You are asked for the speed v.
2
Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:
$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{220}{1} = 220$
3
Answer with the unit: 220 km/h.
4
The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (220 × 1 = 220 km) and time = distance ÷ speed (220 ÷ 220 = 1 hour).
