Distance, speed and time
SPEED FORMULAS
FIND SPEED
speed = distance ÷ time
FIND DISTANCE
distance = speed × time
FIND TIME
time = distance ÷ speed
UNITS
km ÷ h gives km/h. m ÷ s gives m/s.
WORKED EXAMPLES

GCSE-friendly working
WORKED EXAMPLES
SPEED
Distance = 120 km, time = 2 h, so speed = 120 ÷ 2 = 60 km/h.
DISTANCE
Speed = 30 m/s, time = 4 s, so distance = 30 × 4 = 120 m.
TIME
Distance = 150 km, speed = 50 km/h, so time = 150 ÷ 50 = 3 h.
TIP
Convert minutes to hours or seconds if the question needs those units.
