Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = Distance

                 time

∴ Distance = Speed × time

                  = 60 × 5

                  = 300km

OR

Since the S.I. Unit for speed is metres per second, we can calculate that too:

For every hour, a distance of sixty kilometres is covered.

This means that in one second, $\frac{60}{3600}$km are covered, which is approximately 0.02km.

If 0.02km is covered every second, then that means 20m are covered per second.

The time must also now be converted to seconds:\

       1 hour = 3600 seconds

    ∴ 5 hours = 3600 × 5

                     = 18,000 seconds

Now that we know the speed and time in S.I. Units, we can calculate the distance in metres:

Speed = Distance

                 time

∴ Distance = Speed × time

                  = 20 × 18,000

                  = 360,000m

                                                                         Hope this helps! :)
