recall the formula for velocity, which involves distance and time:

velocity = distance / time

since the woman's velocity is: 4.5 Km/h, then in order to cover 10 km, we need to find the time in the equation:

4.5 km/h = 10 km / t

multiply both sides by the time (t)

4.5 * t = 10

divide both sides by 4.5 in order to isolate t completely

t = 10 / 4.5

then

t = 2 hours and 0.2222 hours which can be translated into minutes by multiplying this by 60: 40/3 = 13 minutes and 0.33333 minutes. which can be converted into seconds by multiplying it by 60: 20 seconds

Then she will cover that distance in 2 hours, 13 minutes and 20 seconds.
