A car travels 310 km in 1 hour. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 310 km/h.

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{310}{1} = 310\ \text{km/h}

How to work it out

1
Write down what you know: distance d = 310 km, time t = 1 hour. You are asked for the speed v.
2
Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:
$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{310}{1} = 310$
3
Answer with the unit: 310 km/h.
4
The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (310 × 1 = 310 km) and time = distance ÷ speed (310 ÷ 310 = 1 hour).
