Now, let’s try to calculate speed, distance, and time. Read the situation below.

We had a family vacation in Baguio.

My father drove our van from City of
Malolos to Baguio City at an average
speed of 55 kilometers per hour, for a
total of 4 hours. How far did we travel?

Given:
Distance =
Average Speed = 55 kph =
Time = 4 hours =
Distance = ?
Answer : We traveled 220 kilometers

A train travels 120 miles in 2
hours What is its average
speed?
Given:
Average Speed = ?
Speed =
Time = 2 hours
Distance = 120 miles
=

= 60 miles per hour
