Answer:

25 km

Explanation:


\text{We know:}\\\\v=(s)/(t)\\\\v-speed\\s-distance\\t-time\\\\\text{We have}\ v=20\ (km)/(h)\ \text{and}\ t=1(1)/(4)h=(5)/(4)h.\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\20=(s)/((5)/(4))\\\\20=s\cdot(4)/(5)\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 5}\\\\100=4s\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\25=s\to s=25\ km
