Question 403876: The distance from King Street to Prince Street is 21 km. It takes 30 minutes.

Answer by texttutoring(324) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The relationship between Distance, Speed and Time is found in this formula:
D=ST
You have D at T, and you're looking for S. First, let's change T from 30 minutes to 0.5 hours, so that our speeed will be in km/h.
D=ST
21 = S(0.5)
S = 21/0.5
S = 42 km/h
So the average speed is 42 km/h.
Hope this helps!
