Answer:

distance = speed × time

Explanation:

The relationship between time, speed, and distance is expressed by the units we use to report speed:

speed = miles per hour

In generic terms, ...

speed = distance/time

To calculate distance, multiply both sides of this equation by time:

distance = speed × time
