Average velocity of a moving body is defined as the total displacement made by the body in unit interval of time.
Average Velocity = Total Displacement/ Total Time.
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities.
But, Time is not a vector quantity.
That's why direction of average velocity is same as direction of the displacement of the body.
*Note - 1) Direction of displacement is the unit vector from initial point to final point of motion.
2) Don't confuse displacement with distance. Both are different.
