what is the distance traveled by a vehicle in 12 minutes, if it's speed is 35km/h?

And the answer I got was 7km but I got it wrong. Please help!

12 min is 12/60 or 1/5 hr

distance=35km/hr * 1/5 hr= 7 km

It is right.

Did you change 12 minutes to hours? probably not.

distance = rate x time
rate = 35 km/hr
time = 12 minutes = 12 x (1 hr/60 minutes) = 0.2 hr.
distance = 35 x 0.2 = ?? km

To find the distance traveled by a vehicle in 12 minutes, you can use the formula:

Distance = Speed × Time

However, there's a small adjustment needed for the unit of time. Given that the speed is given in kilometers per hour (km/h) and the time is given in minutes, we need to convert the time into hours.

Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we divide 12 minutes by 60 to convert it into hours:

12 minutes ÷ 60 = 0.2 hours

Now, we can substitute the values into the formula:

Distance = Speed × Time
Distance = 35 km/h × 0.2 hours
Distance = 7 km

So, according to the calculations, the distance traveled by the vehicle in 12 minutes is indeed 7 kilometers.

If the answer you obtained was marked as incorrect, please double-check the question's context or any specific conditions mentioned that may have affected the calculation.
