Answer:

Charlotte has run 5 km for the first 20 minutes of the race.

Explanation:

This is deduced from her training speed of 1 km every 4 minutes.

If we multiply the 20 minutes by the speed at which he has run (
(1km)/(4minutes) =
(0,25 km)/(1 minute)):


(0,25 km)/(1 minute) * 20 minutes = 5 km

We obtain the distance he has traveled in 20 minutes at a constant speed of
(0,25 km)/(1 minute).

Have a nice day!
