The correct Answer is:
To convert the speed of the postman from kilometers per hour (km/h) to meters per minute (m/min), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the conversion factors 1 kilometer (km) is equal to 1000 meters (m). 1 hour (h) is equal to 60 minutes (min). ### Step 2: Set up the conversion We start with the speed of the postman, which is 36 km/h. We need to convert this into m/min. ### Step 3: Convert kilometers to meters To convert kilometers to meters, we multiply by 1000: \[ 36 \text{ km/h} = 36 \times 1000 \text{ m/h} \] \[ = 36000 \text{ m/h} \] ### Step 4: Convert hours to minutes Next, we need to convert hours to minutes. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we divide by 60: \[ 36000 \text{ m/h} = \frac{36000 \text{ m}}{60 \text{ min}} \] ### Step 5: Perform the division Now, we perform the division: \[ \frac{36000}{60} = 600 \text{ m/min} \] ### Conclusion The speed of the postman in meters per minute is **600 m/min**. ---
