campbell_st · Answer

use the formula

$$Average speed = \frac{distance..travelled}{time..taken}$$

anonymous · Answer

The distance traveled is equal to velocity times time, or:
$$d=vt$$ The distance is 108 miles and the time is 2 hours, so:
$$v=d/t=108 miles/2 miles = 54 miles/hour$$

anonymous · Answer

Sorry that should say 108 miles/2 hours, not 2 miles.
