Answer:

Since there is already an answer up, i am going to go in depth and show how that answer was found.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that S=d/t, where s=speed, d=distance, and t=time, we are given 2 variables which are the distance of 20km and the time of 10 minutes.

We can plug that into our equation and we get:

S=20km/10min

simplify,

S=2km/1min

thus, the average velocity would be 2 km/min
