PLEASE SOLVE THE Q STEP BY STEP

Answer 1

Answer:

720 m.

Explanation:

Person can walk at speed of 1.5 m/s, which we call 1.5 m per second.

Speed is 1.5 m/s, it means person covers 1.5 m in 1 sec.

 ⇒ Person covers 1.5 m in = 1 sec

8 minute = 8 * 60 sec = 480 sec

 ⇒ Person covers 480 * 1.5 m in = 480 * 1 sec

 ⇒ Person covers 720 m in = 480 sec( = 8 minute )

Hence,

  He covers 720 m in 8 minute.

1 minute=60s

8 minute=8*60=480s

distance covered in 1s=1.5m

distance covered in 480s=1.5*480m

                                            = 720.0
