Answer :

Answer:

total distance covered by the farmer = 2 km

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the required distance

as per given:

farmer covers 20 m in 3 min

farmer covers x m in 300 min

(as 5 hours = 60 * 5 = 300 minutes)

x/20 = 300/3

x = 20(100) = 2000 m = 2 km

as 1 km = 1000 m

thus,

total distance covered by the farmer = 2 km
