Question

Chandler is walking 1/16km every 10 minutes. How many kilometers will he walk in 1 hour?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{3}{8}$ km

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Chandler is walking 1/16 km every 10 minutes. We are asked to find distance walked by Chandler in 1 hour.

We know that 1 hour equals 60 minutes.

$\text{Distance}=\text{Speed}\times\text{Time}$

$\text{Distance}=\frac{\frac{1}{16}\text{km}}{\text{10 minutes}}\times\text{60 minutes}$

$\text{Distance}=\frac{1\text{ km}}{\text{16*10 minutes}}\times\text{60 minutes}$

$\text{Distance}=\frac{1\text{ km}}{160}\times60$

$\text{Distance}=\frac{60}{160}\text{ km}$

$\text{Distance}=\frac{3}{8}\text{ km}$

Therefore, Chandler will walk $\frac{3}{8}$ km in one hour.

Answer 2

There are 60 minutes in a hour. So 1/16 times 60 is 3 3/4 kilometers. HOPE THIS HELPED!
