It is a little difficult to tell if you meant to write the t under the d or the V or next to it ....
if you meant v = d t
Velocity equals the product of the distance traveled and the time of travel.
However, this is not a correct statement.
velocity = distance DIVIDED by time.
V = d / t (which can also be written V t = d)
I.e.,
the speed of an object is calculated by dividing how far it traveled by how long it was travelling.
If it goes 10 miles in 30 min. , the velocity is = 10 mi. / 30 min. = 20 mi/hr.

The velocity of an object "V" is equal to the distance traveled "d" divided by the time "t". Example: if a car travels a distance of 88 feet in 1 second, the velocity would calculate to be d/t = 88 ft/sec.

Velocity = Distance/Time
Which basically means how fast you are going is equal to how far you have gone divided by how long it took you to get there.
