A girl was riding her scooter. Her father wanted to calculate her speed. He knew that the street was 600 meters from end to end. He saw his daughter make the roundtrip 6 times. It took her 20 minutes to complete those 6 trips. How fast was the girl riding her scooter in kilometers per hour? Choose the correct answer:  A) 2  B) 2.4  C) 1.2  D) 2.1  E) 2.7
The distance of the street was 600 meters.   The made the roundtrip 6 times, which would be 2 trips for each roundtrip.   Multiply 12 times 600 to get the total distance. 600 * 12 = 7200 meters of 7.2 km.   The question asked for the speed in km/hour and 20 minutes is one third of an hour.   Multiply 7200 by 1/3 to get approximately 2400 meters.   Correct answer is 2.4
