Velocity is defined as Distance divided by Time.
In other words, V = D/T.

Now that we have our formula, we can solve.
Let's plug in the numbers we have.

We have 12m [East (direction not necessary when solving yet)] for our distance, and 0.15s as our time.

Divide the distance (12 /) by the time (0.15)
12 / 0.15 = 80.

Your velocity is 80 m/s [E]

I hope this helps!
