To calculate the speed of the car, we can use the formula:

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

Here, the distance traveled by the car is 450 kilometers and the time taken is 6 hours. Substituting these values in the formula we get:

Speed = 450 km ÷ 6 hours

Simplifying this expression gives:

Speed = 75 km/hour

Therefore, the car traveled at a speed of 75 kilometers per hour.
