Average speed = distance travelled / time.

( note: distance must be in (m) and time in sec, if not then you convert ).

1) average speed = 20/2 = 10mls.

2) average speed = 100/5 = 20 m/s.

3) since we aren't given (time) let's call it x

so we replace the unknown time with x..

average speed = 2/x = 1

then cross multiply

you get x (the unknown time) as 2s {seconds}.

(to check if it's correct just add the time we got back into the equation and see if you would get a erage speed as 1m/s).

4) do the same, replace distance as x or any letter you want )

average speed = x/ 10 = 50

cross multiply

you get x = 500m {meters}

5) (we need to convert km to meters and time to secs because that's what we are working with).

200km = 200,000 m { to convert to meters you multiply the given by 1000, 1km = 1000m).

for 2h, we know that:

60 seconds makes 1 minute

60 minutes makes an hour.

so we multiply 60 by 60 we get 3600mins then we multiply it by 2 to get 7200 secs

so now

Average speed = 200,000/7200 = 27.77 m/s.

Here you go..

hope this helps

Good luck and ace that test.
