Question

Byun walked 15 blocks in 25 minutes. What was his average speed?
average = distance / time

Answer 1

Since average= distance/time you plug in the numbers and it becomes, average= 15/25. If you divide 15 by 25 you get an answer of 0.6. That is the average. 

Answer 2

3/5 blocks per minute

Explanation:

Byun walked 15 blocks in 25 minutes.

average = distance / time

Average speed is equal to distanced traveled by the time taken

`Average =(distance)/(time)`

Distance = 15 blocks

and time = 25 minutes

So
`Average =(15)/(25)`

Divide both sides by 5

`Average =(15)/(25)=(3)/(5)`

Average speed is 3/5 blocks per minute
