The formula for the distance traveled over time t and at an average speed v. v times t. If Amit ran for 40 minutes at a speed of about 5 kilometers per hour. What calculation will give us the estimated distance Amit ran in kilometers? Can you help me figure out the answer?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Thus, Amit ran 3.33 KM

calculation needed:

conversion of time (40 minutes to hour)

multiplying velocity  and time (which we got in hours)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

to calculate the distance: . v times t

that is multiply v with t

where v is average velocity

t is the  time

__________________________________

Given

v = 5 km/hour

time = 40 minutes

since speed is in Km per hour and also we have to find distance in km

lets convert time which in 40 minutes to hour

we know

60 minutes = 1 hour

1 minute = 1/60 hour

40 minutes = 40/60 hour = 2/3 hour

distance = v times t

distance = 5*2/3 = 10/3 = 3 1/3 km = 3.33 km

Thus, Amit ran 3.33 KM

calculation needed:

conversion of time (40 minutes to hour)

multiplying velocity  and time (which we got in hours)

Answer:

5 • 40/50

Is the correct answer
