Best Answer

Distance = (speed) multiplied by (time)
Speed = (distance) divided by (time)
Time = (distance) divided by (speed)

These three formulas are all equivalent ... knowing any one of them, you can easily write the other two.

What they show you is that in order to find the distance OR the speed OR the time, you have to know
both of the other two quantities.

The answer to your question is: If you only know the speed, then you CAN'T find the distance AND the time.

This makes sense: You can have a million cars all driving at the same speed. That certainly doesn't mean
that they all drive for same length of time and cover the same distance, does it ? ! ?
