    I could be misunderstanding the question, but are you saying that it took you 3.06 seconds to go a distance of 0.038 miles?

    If that's the case:

    first, convert seconds into hours
    3.06/60 = minutes
    minutes/60 = hours

    then take distance/time

    0.038/whatever hours = speed
