To find the distance covered by Ron, we can use the formula:
Distance = Speed × Time
Given that Ron walked at a speed of 8 km/h and for a duration of 20 minutes, we need to convert the time to hours before we can calculate the distance.
First, let's convert the time from minutes to hours:
20 minutes ÷ 60 minutes/hour = 0.333 hours (rounded to 3 decimal places)
Now, we can calculate the distance:
Distance = 8 km/h × 0.333 hours = 2.664 km (rounded to 3 decimal places)
Therefore, Ron covered a distance of approximately 2.664 km.
