Answer 1

GIVEN:
time taken, t = 20 min= 1200 sec
Velocity, v = 3 m/s
Distance, s = ?

s = v ×t
= 3 × 1200
= 3600 m
= 3.6 km

Answer 2

Given - Speed and time

Find - Distance

Solution - The distance between her house and school is 3600 metres or 3.6 km.

Distance = Speed*time

Converting time in second

1 minute = 60 seconds

20 minutes = 60*20

20 minutes = 1200 seconds

Distance = 3*1200

Distance = 3600 metres or 3.6 km

So, distance between her house and school is 3600 metres or 3.6 km.
