speed arithmetic

Speed arithmetic involves calculating how fast something is moving over a period of time, typically expressed as distance divided by time (speed = distance ÷ time). To find speed, you measure the total distance traveled and divide it by the duration of travel. For example, if you travel 100 miles in 2 hours, your speed is 50 miles per hour. This calculation helps you understand how quickly an object or vehicle is moving, and is fundamental in tracking travel, planning routes, and estimating arrival times.
