Speed is defined as distance covered per unit of time, so distance divided by speed equals time. For example, if you are travelling for 200 miles at a speed of 60 miles per hour, 200 miles/60 mph = three and a third hours.

What are the three ways to write speed equation to find the time distance and speed?
The basic definition of speed is: speed = distance / time Solve this equation for distance, or solve it for time, to get two additional versions of the equation.
What is the formula we use to solve for speed?
speed = distance/time
How are distance time and speed related?
Speed=distance/time. Speed is in meters per second if distance is in meters, and time is in seconds. Using simple algebra, the equation can be rearranged to solve for a missing variable (speed, distance, or time). therefore: distance=speed x time time= distance/speed
How do you find the speed of an object given distance and time?
Divide the distance by the time; the quotient is speed.
Finding distance given the average speed?
Use the formula: distance = time x speed.Use the formula: distance = time x speed.Use the formula: distance = time x speed.Use the formula: distance = time x speed.
How do you solve speed word problems?
Use the equation, speed = distance / time, substitute in the given information from the problem and solve it.
How do you calculate distance if you are given time and speed?
Speed=Distance(time) So you would plug in what you know and solve so if your speed is 5 and your time is ten you have traveled 10 units
How do you solve speed?
Speed= Distance/Time

What is the formula to find the average speed of a given distance and time?
Distance = time * average speed (velocity) Average speed = Distance/time
How do you find the speed of an object given distance and time?
Divide the distance by the time; the quotient is speed.
Can total time be used to solve for average speed?
I'd imagine distance/total time=average speed
What is the relationship that allows you to solve for average speed?
Speed is equal to the distance traveled divided by the time taken. SPEED = (DIST/Time)
How do distance-time and speed-time graphs help explain an object's motion?
Distance - Time shows speed (by gradient) and distance travelled over a given time. Speed - time shows acceleration and instant speed.
What can you determine if you know the distance in a given time?
speed
