Average speed is total distance divided by total time.
Hence 10 metres in 6 seconds is an average speed of (10/6) = 2.66666 m/s.
Notice the units of speed - if you ever forget that speed is distance over time, just remember speed's units is something like metres per second, miles per hour etc. "per" means divided by.

How do you calculate the average speed without knowing the speed only the time?
To calculate the average speed of /anything/ you need to know the distance it traveled (IE: 500 meters) and the time it took to travel that (IE:50 seconds) Here's how to calculate it: You take the total distance and divide it by the time. So in our example, a car traveled 500 meters in 50 seconds, so the speed would be: 500 meters / 50 seconds = 500/50 = 10 meters / second. So the car would be traveling 10 meters per second.
