    Answer:

    0.4 km/h

    Explanation:

    Speed is defined as distance moved per unit time and can be expressed in either m/s or Km/h or miles/h

    Mathematically,

    s=\frac {d}{t}

    where d represent distance covered and t is time taken

    Taking d as 100 m and converting it into km, we divide by 1000 hence d= 0.1 km

    Time is 15 minutes and to convert to hours we divide by 60 hence 0.25 hours

    Speed, s=\frac {0.1}{0.25}=0.4 Km/h

    Therefore, the speed is equivalent to 0.4 km/h
