Find the distance traveled by a baseball in 1.7 s if the baseballs average speed is 22.4 m/s

Take note that average speed can be computed using the formula
s_(avg) = (t otal .distance . covered)/ (t otal . time . taken) 
  Plugging in the given values, the formula becomes
22.4m/s =(distance)/(1.7s)
Isolating the distance, the equation turns into
22.4 m/s * 1.7s = dista n c e
33.08 m= dista n c e
 
Therefore, the baseball has a traveled a total distance of 33.08 meters.
