Answer: He would take 0.0833 hour  or 5 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Gerard ran a  6000 metres in 30 minutes, Speed becomes

Speed =distance / time

But time  to hours becomes  30/ 60=1/2=0.5hr

and meters to kilometres becomes 6000/1000=6 km

Speed =6/0.5 =12 km/h

Now if he runs 1 kilometre at same speed of 12 km/h . he will take

Time =distance/ Speed

Time =1/12=0.0833 hour  Changing to mins becomes 0.08333 x 60=5 mins
