Answer:
The formula for average speed is distance over time, S=D/T. S is the variable we are solving for. You must convert the known units distance and time, if necessary, and input.
If we were to find Kilometers per minute we would setup the following equation:
S=1.2KM/10mins which equals .12KM/Min.
From there is an easy conversion to an hour. Multiply the previous result by 60.
60*.12=7.2KM/Hour.
To check you can input either speed and calculate backwards for either known constant.
.12=D/10mins, 10*.12=1.2 which is 1.2KM
Now again, this is only average speed. John may have not been traveling at that exact speed the whole time but over the ten minutes that is his average speed.
