A car travels 320 km in 9 hours. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 35.555556 km/h.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    Write down what you know: distance d = 320 km, time t = 9 hours. You are asked for the speed v.

  2. 2

    Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:

    v=dt=3209=3209=35.555556v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{320}{9} = \frac{320}{9} = 35.555556
  3. 3

    Answer with the unit: 35.555556 km/h.

  4. 4

    The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (35.555556 × 9 = 320 km) and time = distance ÷ speed (320 ÷ 35.555556 = 9 hours).

LaTeX source of the formulas on this page
\[ v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{320}{9} = 35.555556\ \text{km/h} \]
\[ v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{320}{9} = \frac{320}{9} = 35.555556 \]
