ANSWER
Speed = distance/time
Distance = 600km
Time = 20 mins
Speed = 600km/20min = 30km/min (read as 30 killometer per min means, in 1 min the aeroplane will cover a distance of 30 km)
To calculate speed in km/hour
Convert time in hours
1 hour = 60 min
Or 1 min = 1hour/60
Therefore 20 minutes = 20 * ( 1 hour /60)
= 1 hour/3
Speed (in km/hr) = 600km/ (1 hour/3)
To bring the dividing term into multiplication, we take it's reciprocal and use multiply sign instead if divide
Means
Speed = 600km * 3/1 hour
= 1800 km/hour
Or
Earlier we have a speed of 30km per min
In 1 min it will cover 30 km
In an hour or 60 min it will cover a distance of = 30*60 km = 1800
Again speed is 1800 km per hour (Ans)
