For 5 with a hippopotamus ran 60 m. At what speed did the hippo run?

1. From the data presented in the problem statement, we know that the distance that the hippopotamus has covered is 60 meters.

2. Let’s determine with what speed the hippopotamus was running, if we also know that it spent 5 seconds of time on the whole path. To do this, we need to divide the path traveled by the hippopotamus by the time it took to overcome this distance. Let’s write down the solution:

60/5 = 12 meters per second.

Answer: The speed of the hippopotamus is 12 meters per second.
