Given:
Distance = 60 miles
Time = 5 hours
Determine the average speed.
Formula for average speed.
Vave = d/t
d = distance
t = time
Solution:
Substitute the given values of distance and time to the formula for average speed.
Vave = d/t
Vave = 60 miles/5 hours
Vave = 12miles/hour
Final answer:
Vave = 12miles/hour
