Use speed = distance ÷ time, distance = speed × time and time = distance ÷ speed. Change minutes to hours (÷ 60) before calculating.
1.A car travels 200 km at an average speed of 80 km/h. How long does the trip take?
Answer: 2 hours 30 minutes
- time = distance ÷ speed = 200 ÷ 80
- = 2.5 h = 2 hours 30 minutes
2.A car travels 50 km at an average speed of 40 km/h. How long does the trip take?
Answer: 1 hour 15 minutes
- time = distance ÷ speed = 50 ÷ 40
- = 1.25 h = 1 hour 15 minutes
3.A train travels at 90 km/h for 1 hour 30 minutes. How far does it travel?
Answer: 135 km
- time = 1.5 h

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.
