Solution :
Given,
Speed of the man = 1/2 km/h
Time taken by the man = 3 h
Now,
For finding the distance covered by the man
By using the formula of distance
s = v × t
Here,
"s" means distance covered by the man.
"v" means speed of the man.
"t" means time taken by the man.
=> s = v × t
=> s = 1/2 × 3
=> s = 3/2
=> s = 1.5
.°. s = 1.5 km
So, the distance covered by the man is 1.5 km.
Answer : 1.5 km
