The correct answer is: Unity or less
$\frac{\mid \text { Average velocity } \mid}{\mid \text { Average speed } \mid}=\frac{\mid \text { displaceme nt } \mid}{\mid \text { distance } \mid} \leq 1$
because displacement will either be equal or less than distance. It can never be greater than distance.
