Answer:


Distance =24(1)/(2)\ km

Explanation:

Given


Rate = (4)/(5) km/ min

Required

Determine the distance covered in
6(1)/(8)\ min

The distance is calculated using:


Distance = Rate * Time

This gives:


Distance = 4 * 6(1)/(8)

Convert to improper fraction


Distance = 4 * (49)/(8)


Distance = (4 * 49)/(8)


Distance = (196)/(8)


Distance =24(1)/(2)\ km
