Average speed is always: ( total distance ) / ( total time )
\n" ); document.write( "Total time = \"+10+%2B+5+=+15+\" sec
\n" ); document.write( "convert sec to hrs
\n" ); document.write( "( sec ) x ( min/sec ) x ( hrs / min ) = hrs
\n" ); document.write( "\"+15%2A%28+1%2F60+%29%2A%28+1%2F60+%29+=+15+%2F+3600+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+15%2F3600+=+1%2F240+\" hrs
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Convert \"+10+\" sec to hrs
\n" ); document.write( "\"+10%2A%28+1%2F3600+%29+=+1%2F360+\" hrs
\n" ); document.write( "The 1st distance is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d%5B1%5D+=+54%2A%28+1%2F360+%29+\" km
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Convert \"+5+\" sec to hrs
\n" ); document.write( "\"+5%2A%28+1%2F3600+%29+=+1%2F720+\"
\n" ); document.write( "The 2nd distance is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d%5B2%5D+=+96%2A%28+1%2F720+%29+\" km
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( " ( total distance ) / ( total time ) =
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28+d%5B1%5D+%2B+d%5B2%5D+%29+%2F+%28+1%2F240+%29+\"

\n" ); document.write( "many km in 15 sec?
