A car travels 350 miles in 3 hours. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 116.66667 mph.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    Write down what you know: distance d = 350 miles, time t = 3 hours. You are asked for the speed v.

  2. 2

    Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:

    v=dt=3503=3503=116.66667v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{350}{3} = \frac{350}{3} = 116.66667
  3. 3

    Answer with the unit: 116.66667 mph.

  4. 4

    The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (116.66667 × 3 = 350 miles) and time = distance ÷ speed (350 ÷ 116.66667 = 3 hours).
