How Do you write the answer for average velocity

Question

44/45= 0.97 how do I add the Miles per second and the direction  (East)?

Answer 1

I assume the 44 is miles and the 45 is seconds.

 

v = (44 miles)/(45 seconds) = 44/45 mi/s ≅ 0.98 mi/s

 

If the object is moving east, you could express the velocity as

 

v = 0.98 mi/s E

 

If you are familiar with vector notation, you could also express the velocity as

 

v = (0.98 mi/s)i
