Answer:

4 meters

Explanation:

About Elena we know that she moves at 60 meters each 15 seconds:

Distance Time

60m → 15s

and we want to know how far she would go in only 1 second:

Distance Time

60m → 15s

x → 1s

where x is the unknown distance, that we calculate as follows: multiply the cross quantities in the table and divide by the other number in the corner.


x=(60*1)/(15) =4

In one second she will travel 4 meters.
