Answer: 666
(2)/(3) seconds or 11
(1)/(9) minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to get everything in similar units. We know that one km is equal to 1,000 m. This means that Edward is running 2,000 m since 2 km * 1,000 m/km = 2,000 m.

Next, we will find out how long this will take him. He is running a distance of 2,000 m at a speed of 3 m/s. We will divide the distance by the speed to find the time.

(2,000 meters) / (3 meters/second) = 666
(2)/(3) seconds or 11
(1)/(9) minutes
