A car travels 430 km in 4 hours. What is its average speed?

The average speed is 107.5 km/h.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    Write down what you know: distance d = 430 km, time t = 4 hours. You are asked for the speed v.

  2. 2

    Use the formula speed = distance ÷ time:

    v=dt=4304=2152=107.5v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{430}{4} = \frac{215}{2} = 107.5
  3. 3

    Answer with the unit: 107.5 km/h.

  4. 4

    The same formula rearranged: distance = speed × time (107.5 × 4 = 430 km) and time = distance ÷ speed (430 ÷ 107.5 = 4 hours).
