The answer you are looking for is approximately 1.67 m/s.

Solution/Explanation:

Distance Ran: 100 m.

Time ran: 10x6s, or 60s, or one minute.

Speed: Unknown?

Writing out the formula for speed, using distance and time,

S=D/T.

S=Speed.

D=Distance.

T=Time.

Substituting the given values of the variables,

S=100 m/10x6s, or S=100 m/one minute, or S=100 m/60s.

100÷60=1.6667≈1.67.

So, therefore, the final answer is approximately 1.67 m/s.

I hope that this has helped you. Enjoy your day, and take care.
