Answer:
Velocity usually refers to calculating it instanteneously.
If we say body A has a velocity v then it means it is at the moment of measuring.
Average velocity is a term we use for the overall trip.
It is defined as: total displacement / time taken
clearly we are no longer concerned with any particular instant.
