A car travels 320 km in 10 hours. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 32 km/h.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    Write down what you know: distance d = 320 km, time t = 10 hours. You are asked for the speed v.

  2. 2

    Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:

    v=dt=32010=32v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{320}{10} = 32
  3. 3

    Answer with the unit: 32 km/h.

  4. 4

    The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (32 × 10 = 320 km) and time = distance ÷ speed (320 ÷ 32 = 10 hours).
