    Speed Distance Time Calculator

    Covering 150 km in 2.5 hours is an average speed of 60 km/h, from speed = distance ÷ time.

    Solve for:
    Speed v =

    60 km/h

    In m/s
    16.66666667 m/s
    In mph
    37.28227153 mph
    In ft/s
    54.68066492 ft/s
    In knots
    32.39740821 knots
    Pace (minutes per km)
    1 min/km
    Pace (minutes per mile)
    1.609344 min/mi
    Step-by-step solution
    1. v = d ÷ t
    2. v = 150 ÷ 2.5
    3. v = 60 km/h

    Speed Distance Time Formula

    v = d / t

    v average speed, d distance, t time; d = v × t, t = d / v

    Worked Example

    A 150 km drive that takes 2 hours 30 minutes:

    1. v = d ÷ t
    2. v = 150 ÷ 2.5
    3. v = 60 km/h

    In mph: 37.28227153 mph · In ft/s: 54.68066492 ft/s · In knots: 32.39740821 knots · Pace (minutes per km): 1 min/km · Pace (minutes per mile): 1.609344 min/mi

    Converting speed units

    Multiply m/s by 3.6 for km/h; 1 mph is exactly 1.609344 km/h; 1 knot is exactly 1.852 km/h. The speed converter covers every unit pair.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I calculate travel time?

    Divide distance by speed: 150 km at 60 km/h takes 2.5 h, which is 2 h 30 min. Choose “time” and the calculator shows hours and minutes.

    Is average speed the average of the speeds?

    Not in general. Driving 60 km at 60 km/h and 60 km at 30 km/h takes 3 h for 120 km, an average of 40 km/h, not 45 km/h.

    What is pace?

    Pace is time per distance, the reciprocal of speed: 12 km/h is 5 minutes per kilometre. Runners use it instead of speed.
