The question is:
Hypothetically, if we drove our road trip itinerary straight through without stops or traffic, we would drive our road trip at a certain average speed. The formula for average speed is:
S=d/t
Where s is the average speed, d is the total distance, and t is the total time.
Hypothetically if we had one distance and one time period. I will use 2 km and 10 minutes as an example
Given one distance and one time period, we can find the average speed by plugging the values into the formula. For example, if we drove 2 kilometers in 10 minutes, what was our average speed?
To answer this question, we need to convert the units to miles and hours, and then use the formula. The answer is about 7.45644 miles per hour.
2 km = 1.24274 miles
10 mins= 0.166667 hours
Now we do a = 1.24274/0.166667 and that’s approximately 7.45
