Question

A man walk 1/10 meters per second how long will it take him to walk in 5 minutes.

Answer 1

Answer:  30 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Use conversions:

$\dfrac{1}{10}\cdot \dfrac{meters}{second}\times \dfrac{60\ seconds}{1\ minute}\times 5\ minutes\\\\\\\text{Cross out seconds and minutes, then simplify:}\\\\\dfrac{1\ meter \times 60\times 5}{10}\\\\\\=\dfrac{300\ meters}{10}\\\\\\=\boxed{30\ meters}$

Answer 2

1 sec=1/10 m

5 min=300 sec

thus, 1/10 *300

=30 m

He will walk 30m in 5 min
