Answer: 41 minutes and 40 seconds

Explanation:

1000 meters=1 km

10 km * 1000 meters/1 km=

10 * 1000/1=

10*1000=10000 meters

10000 meters * 1 second/4 meters=

10000 * 1/4=

10000/4=2500 seconds

60 seconds=1 minute

2500 seconds * 1 minute/60 seconds=

2500/60=

(2460+40)/60=

2460/60 + 40/60= 41 minutes and 40 seconds
