There is no such thing as a "kilometers per hour formula" because kilometers per hour is a unit. 


However, there are many formulas for calculating speed in kilometers per hour. These formulas are all based on the relationship that states that speed is the ratio of a distance to a time:



In the case of miles per hour: 




with:

  •  : the velocity expressed in kilometers per hour [km/h] ;
  •  : the distance in kilometers [km] ;
  •  the duration in hours [h].


Please note that the time must be expressed only in the unit of hours (not minutes). For example, 2 hours and 45 minutes must be converted into hours:





Let's take the example of a vehicle that travels 220 km in 2 hours and 45 minutes. Its average speed is :
