A person crosses a 600 m long street in 5 minutes. What is his speed in km per hour?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
| Speed = | ![]() |
600 | m/sec. |
| 5 x 60 |
= 2 m/sec.
Converting m/sec to km/hr (see important formulas section)
| = | ![]() |
2 x | 18 | ![]() |
km/hr |
| 5 |
= 7.2 km/hr.

S = d/t.
600m = 0.6km.
5minutes = 5/60 = 0.083hr,
S = 0.6/0.083,
= 7.2km/hr.
600m = 0.6km.
5minutes = 5/60 = 0.083hr,
S = 0.6/0.083,
= 7.2km/hr.

Be cool for 5min 600m, so for 1 min 600/50 = 120m.
For 60min 60*120 = 7200m.
For 60min 60*120 = 7200m.

s = d/t.
s = 600m/5min.
120m/1min.
60*120/60*1.
7200m/60min .
7.2km/1hr.
s = 600m/5min.
120m/1min.
60*120/60*1.
7200m/60min .
7.2km/1hr.

I can understand how it came 5/18m/sec but can not understand 18/5 km/hr?

@Minalo.
If you want to change in km then multiply the value with 18/5.

s = d/t.
d = 600m,
t = 5min,
s = 600/5 * 60,
= 2 m/sec.
2 * 18/5.
= 7.2.
d = 600m,
t = 5min,
s = 600/5 * 60,
= 2 m/sec.
2 * 18/5.
= 7.2.

I don't know the formula. How you convert m to km. What s that formula.

T=5/60hour,
D=600/1000Km=3/5Km,
Speed=Distance /Time=3/5*60/5=7.2Km/hr.
D=600/1000Km=3/5Km,
Speed=Distance /Time=3/5*60/5=7.2Km/hr.

s = d/t.
d = 600m,
t = 5m.
600/5 * 60,
= 2 * 18/5,
= 2 * 3.2,
= 7.2.
d = 600m,
t = 5m.
600/5 * 60,
= 2 * 18/5,
= 2 * 3.2,
= 7.2.
