The speed is defined as the distance covered per unit time,

Methematically,


\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance Travelled}}{\text{Time Taken}}

Given that the distance is 'd' miles, and time taken is 'x' hours, then the speed(s) is given by,


s=(d)/(x)\text{ miles per hour}

Thus, the relation between the three quantities is established.
