Question

Jake is walking through the park ar a pace of 71 meters per minute. How many kilometers will he have walked if he continues for 4 hours and 35 minutes?

Answer 1

Speed: 71 meters per minute

time: 4 hours and 35 minutes

First, express the time in minutes:

Since 1 hour = 60 minutes

4 hours = 4 x60 = 240 min +60 min = 300 minutes

Time = 300 minutes

Distance: Speed x time

Distance: 71 meter/min x 300 min = 71 x 300 = 21,300 meters
