This will be true if the object moves with the same speed (a uniform speed) throughout all the time it is moving.
If the object is a bus or train making stops along the way, total distance divided by the total time from a given point to another point is the average speed of the object for that interval.

The average speed is the total distance divided by the time taken to cover the distance.
D/t = rate (Speed, velocity, etc)
Distance travelled divided by time taken.
The distance traveled by an object divided by the time it takes to travel that distance is called the average speed.[ Average ] Speed = Distance / TimeFor example :A car that travels 60 miles in a time of 2 hours has an average speed of 30 miles per hour.
D= Distance S= Speed T= Time Speed = Distance/Time Distance = Speed x Time Time Taken = Distance/Speed
