Formula
Speed = distance Γ· time. Time = distance Γ· speed. Distance = speed Γ time. Keep units consistent β km with km/h, or miles with mph (1 mile = 1.609 km).
Worked examples
- 120 km in 1h 30m β 80 km/h (β50 mph).
- 300 km at 100 km/h β 3 hours.
- 2 hours at 65 mph β 130 miles (β209 km).
Common mistakes
- Entering 1.5 hours as 1h 50m β decimals and minutes differ.
- Mixing miles with km/h.
- Ignoring stops: average trip speed includes breaks.

Questions
How do I calculate travel time?
Divide distance by speed: 240 km at 80 km/h is 3 hours. Choose βTimeβ above.
How do I convert km/h to mph?
Divide by 1.609: 100 km/h β 62 mph.
Why is my trip slower than this?
Real trips include traffic and stops; average speed is below cruising speed.
Does this work for running or cycling?
Yes β same physics; pair it with the pace calculator for per-km splits.
Can it solve any of the three?
Yes β pick which to find and enter the other two.
