Task

Swipe to start coding

If we have the amount of distance (distance) a car has traveled, and the time it took to to cover that distance (timeTaken), we can calculate the average speed that car had throughout the journey, using the formula:

Speed = Distance / Time Taken

Note

The distance is in meters, and the time is in seconds.

The given code uses the two variables, distance and timeTaken to calculate and show the speed of a car.

  • Define a function called calcSpeed.
  • Put the given code inside the calcSpeed function.
  • Execute the calcSpeed function twice.
