Assuming that you're asking for the average speed,
Average speed = distance / time
since he circle 8 km track 10 times, the distance is 80,000 m and the time is 20 min or 1200 seconds
Average speed = 80,000 / 1200 = 66.67 m/s
Hope this helps

Find the average speed and the average velocity.
Average speed = distance / time
distance = 10 x 8000 m = 80,000 m
time = 20 min * 60 s/min = 1200 s
Average speed = 80,000 m / 1200 s = 66.67 m/s
Average velocity = displacement / time
Given that the race car made complete circles the final poin is the same initial point, then its displacement is zero and the average velocity is zero too.
