Answer:

60km

Explanation:

There are two ways to look at this

1. Finding the unit rate

We can find how many km he travels in 1 hour by diving both the hours and km by 2. 1 hour = 10km so 6 hours is 60km since we multiply by 6.

2. Multiply by 3

We can multiply both the km and hours by 3, since 2x3=6 hours

20km * 3 hours = 60km
