A car travels 380 km in 5 hours. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 76 km/h.

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{380}{5} = 76\ \text{km/h}

How to work it out

1
Write down what you know: distance d = 380 km, time t = 5 hours. You are asked for the speed v.
2
Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:
$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{380}{5} = 76$
3
Answer with the unit: 76 km/h.
4
The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (76 × 5 = 380 km) and time = distance ÷ speed (380 ÷ 76 = 5 hours).
