i believe this is an example of a d(istance)=r(ate) x t(ime) problem.
if you plugged it in, 1580 miles= r x 4 hours. you would then have to divide both sides by 4. your answer (r) or average speed would then be 395 miles/hour.

average mph would be found by 1580 divided by 4 which would give you 395 mph average

The average speed is how far something moves (distance) in a certain amount of time (in this case, hours) so the formula you want to use is:
distance/hours
or
1580 miles/4 hours

average speed=(distance/time)
so1580 miles/4 hours should give you the answer.
