Answer is 10 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:-

First, we need to calculate one-third of 36 seconds :


(1)/(3) * 36


(36)/(3)


12

Now, to find velocity, let's divide the distance by time :


velocity = (distance)/(time)


velocity = (120)/(12)


velocity = 10 \: m/s

Therefore, Jen's velocity is 10 m/s .
