Final answer:

To find out how far you would travel in 3 minutes at 6 m/s, convert minutes to seconds (180 seconds) and multiply by the speed to get 1080 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate how far you will travel in 3 minutes running at a rate of 6 m/s, you need to determine the total number of seconds in 3 minutes. There are 60 seconds in a minute, so 3 minutes will have 3 × 60 = 180 seconds. Next, you multiply the rate of speed (6 m/s) by the total number of seconds to find the distance.

Distance = Speed × Time

Distance = 6 m/s × 180 s = 1080 meters

Therefore, you will travel 1080 meters in 3 minutes at a rate of 6 m/s.
