However you like.
For some things distance does not vary at all - or not measurably so eg between London and New York. For objects under simple harmonic motion (such as a pendulum) the distance increases and decreases (according to quite a simple formula). For the archetypal drunken walk (or Brownian motion) the distance is random.

If the velocity is constant, then distance and time are directly proportionate. d=vt, where distance is d, velocity is v, and time is t.
Hours is a measure of time, miles is a measure of distance. You can't directly convert them. If you travel at a specific speed, you can use the formula distance = speed x time. Solving for time, you get time = distance / speed. - Of course, the results will vary, depending on whether you go in a car, in an airplane, or by foot.
No, speed can vary and one can still calculate the average speed of an entire trip. Average speed is equal to the change in distance divided by the change in time.
Distance is dependent on time. If there is no time, there is no distance, as distance = velocity * time. As time or speed increases so will distance, therefore, if distance increases, either speed or time must increase. If either speed or time = 0, then distance will equal 0.
That would also depend on the distance. Use the formula distance = speed x time. Solving for time: time = distance / speed.That would also depend on the distance. Use the formula distance = speed x time. Solving for time: time = distance / speed.That would also depend on the distance. Use the formula distance = speed x time. Solving for time: time = distance / speed.That would also depend on the distance. Use the formula distance = speed x time. Solving for time: time = distance / speed.
The formula is Distance=Rate x Time (or distance equals rate multiplied by time). When you take this into account, you can manipulate it to solve for rate or time instead of distance. In other words, you could rewrite it as Rate= Distance/Time (rate equals distance divided by time) and Time= Distance/Rate (time equals distance divided by rate) in case they ask for what the Rate or Time is instead of Distance.
