Given:

Distance = 240 km

Time = 3 hrs

Determine the speed of the car.

Formula for Velocity:

v = d/t

v = velocity

d = distance

t = time

Solution:

Substitute the given values of distance and time to the formula for velocity.

v = d/t

v = 240 km/ 3 hrs

v = 80 km/hr

Final answer:

v = 80 km/hr
