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.
