Answer 1

Time Taken = 15 Mins

Speed Of = 12m/s

Distance = Speed × Time

Distance = 12 × 15

Distance = 180 m

Answer 2

Answer:

None is correct.

The distance between house and the school is 10.8 km.

Given:

• Speed = 12 m/s
• Time taken = 15 minute = 15 × 60 = 900 s

To find:

The distance between house and the school.

Solution:

Speed = Distance/Time

=> Distance = Speed × Time

By substituting the values, we get

=> Distance = 12 × 900
