Use speed = distance ÷ time, distance = speed × time and time = distance ÷ speed. Change minutes to hours (÷ 60) before calculating.
1.Isla travels 80 km in 2 hours. What is the average speed in km/h?
Answer: 40 km/h
- time = 2 h
- speed = distance ÷ time = 80 ÷ 2
- = 40 km/h
2.A train travels at 35 km/h for 5 hours. How far does it travel?
Answer: 175 km
- time = 5 h
- distance = speed × time = 35 × 5
- = 175 km
3.Amelia travels 200 km in 2 hours. What is the average speed in km/h?
Answer: 100 km/h
- time = 2 h
- speed = distance ÷ time = 200 ÷ 2
- = 100 km/h
4.Olivia travels 460 km in 4 hours. What is the average speed in km/h?
Answer: 115 km/h
- time = 4 h
- speed = distance ÷ time = 460 ÷ 4
- = 115 km/h
5.A train travels at 35 km/h for 4 hours. How far does it travel?
Answer: 140 km
- time = 4 h
- distance = speed × time = 35 × 4
- = 140 km
6.A train travels at 105 km/h for 3 hours. How far does it travel?
Answer: 315 km
- time = 3 h
- distance = speed × time = 105 × 3
- = 315 km
7.A car travels 75 km at an average speed of 25 km/h. How long does the trip take?
Answer: 3 hours
- time = distance ÷ speed = 75 ÷ 25
- = 3 h = 3 hours
8.A car travels 375 km at an average speed of 75 km/h. How long does the trip take?
Answer: 5 hours
- time = distance ÷ speed = 375 ÷ 75
- = 5 h = 5 hours
9.A car travels 230 km at an average speed of 115 km/h. How long does the trip take?
Answer: 2 hours
- time = distance ÷ speed = 230 ÷ 115
- = 2 h = 2 hours
10.A car travels 195 km at an average speed of 65 km/h. How long does the trip take?
Answer: 3 hours
- time = distance ÷ speed = 195 ÷ 65
- = 3 h = 3 hours
Marking tips
- Give credit for correct method even when the final answer slips — the working shows where the thinking went right.
- For open-ended tasks, use the success criteria as a checklist rather than looking for one "right" answer.
- Celebrate what went well first, then pick one thing to work on next.
