The distance between his school and his home is 1 km.

What is distance?

Distance can be defined as the length of space between two points. The S.I unit of distance is meter (m)

To calculate the distance, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • S = d/t.............. Equation 1

Where:

  • S = Speed
  • d = distance
  • t = time.

Make d the subject of the equation

  • d = St.................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • S = 5 km/h
  • t = 12 minutes = 12/60 = 0.2 hour

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • d = 5(0.2)
  • d = 1 km.

Hence, the distance between his school and his home is 1 km
