A person crosses a 600 m long street in 5 minutes. What is his speed in km per hour?

a) 3.6 km/hr
b) 7.2 km/hr
c) 8.4 km/hr
d) 10 km/hr

Answer: b
Explanation:
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Speed}} = {\frac{{600}}{{5 \times 60}}} {\text{ m/sec}} = 2{\text{m/sec}} \cr & {\text{Converting}}\,{\text{m/sec}}\,{\text{to}}\,{\text{km/hr}} \cr & = {2 \times \frac{{18}}{5}} {\text{ km/hr}} \cr & = 7.2\,{\text{ km/hr}} \cr} $$
