Doubt Regarding relationship between time and velocity

In this question, we have to find avg velocity.. but to calculate total time, why is everyone following (time = distance/speed), why can't it be (time = displacement/velocity) ? And another thing, isnt constant speed the same as constant velocity?

In circular path velocity changes So speed is taken and displacement for one rev is 0

And constant speed isn’t the same as constant velocity because in constant speed it doesn’t matter which direction u take but it does matter in case of velocity

No, velocity changes at every instant. Because direction changes. Hence, we consider speed because that is constant, and find time according, taking displacement as 2R.
