Question

Ruby was training for a race at the high school track. She took her dog walked 2250 meters in 15 minutes. Calculate the average speed

Answer 1

Answer:

Average speed $= 2.5$ meter per second

Explanation:

Given

The total distance walked $= 2250$ meters

The total time taken to walk $2250$ meters is $15$ minutes

In one minute there are $60$ seconds

As we know Average speed is equal to total distance travelled divided by total time taken

Hence,

Average speed

$\frac{2250}{15*60} \\2.5$meter per second
