Hey there! :) So first of all, I got 31.67 per second. The way I got my answer is first, I knew that 1 KM is 1000 Meters. So now, I multiplied 114 x 1000 which equals 114,000 Meters. Then, I figured out that 1 Hour has 3600 Seconds. Then I did 114,000 ÷ 3,600 and got 31.67 Seconds. And that is how I got the answer!

Hope it helps and it's the right answer & it's understandable! :D
