Answer 1

The distance form the home to school is 1.8 Km.

Explanation:

Time taken  = 10 minutes= 10 x 60 sec.= 600 sec.

speed   =  3 m/s

Distance=Speed x time

             = 3  x  600

            = 1800 m

         = 1800/1000 km

          = 1.8 km

Answer 2

Thus the distance between school and home is 1.8 Km

Explanation:

We are given that:

• Time taken  = 10 minutes
• Convert it into seconds = 10 x 60 sec = 600 seconds
• Speed of bicycle =  3 m/s

To Find: Distance = ?

Solution:

As we know that the formula for distance is;

Distance=Speed x time

Distance = 3  x  600  

Distance = 1800 m

Distance = 1800 / 1000 km

Distance = 1.8 km

Thus the distance between school and home is 1.8 Km
