Question

1. sarah cycles at an average speed of 24 kilometres per hour. how far would she have travelled in 20 minutes at this speed?

Explanation:

Step1: Convert time to hours

20 minutes is $\frac{20}{60}=\frac{1}{3}$ hours.

Step2: Use distance formula

Distance = Speed × Time. Speed is 24 km/h, time is $\frac{1}{3}$ h. So distance = $24\times\frac{1}{3}=8$ km.

Answer:

8 kilometres
