Given:

v =d/t

Solve for t.

Solution:

The given numerical equation is the formula for velocity and in order to solve for t we simply need to multiply t on both sides of the equation first, then divide both sides by v afterwards.

v (t) = d /t (t)

vt = d

vt/v = d/v

t =d/v

This means that time is equal to the distance over the velocity.

Final answer:

t = d/v
