A car travels 320 miles in 3 hours. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 106.66667 mph.

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{320}{3} = 106.66667\ \text{mph}

How to work it out

1
Write down what you know: distance d = 320 miles, time t = 3 hours. You are asked for the speed v.
2
Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:
$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{320}{3} = \frac{320}{3} = 106.66667$
3
Answer with the unit: 106.66667 mph.
4
The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (106.66667 × 3 = 320 miles) and time = distance ÷ speed (320 ÷ 106.66667 = 3 hours).
