A car travels 220 km in 11 hours. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 20 km/h.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    Write down what you know: distance d = 220 km, time t = 11 hours. You are asked for the speed v.

  2. 2

    Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:

    v=dt=22011=20v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{220}{11} = 20
  3. 3

    Answer with the unit: 20 km/h.

  4. 4

    The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (20 × 11 = 220 km) and time = distance ÷ speed (220 ÷ 20 = 11 hours).
