Question

How do you calculate average speed?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\huge \boxed{S=\frac{d}{t} }$

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is the rate at which an object covers a distance in a period of time.

The formula to find speed is as follows:

$\Longrightarrow \ \ \displaystyle \sf speed =\frac{distance \ travelled }{time \ taken}$

$\Longrightarrow \ \ \displaystyle S =\frac{d }{t}$

You divide the distance travelled by the time taken to find the speed.

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Answer 2

Divide
       (the distance covered in some period of time)
by
       (the time taken to cover the distance).

The quotient is the average speed during that period of time.
