40 metres every 2 minutes is only 20 metres in one minute MG, not 1200 metres!
.
@Alan, don't you get the same answer?
40m/2min
20m/1min
2*30=60
40*30=1200
1*60=60
20*60=1200
EDIT: It appears i have confused myself on the first bit i meant for an hour not minute I'll fix that.
Thanks Alan.
20 metres in 1 minute = 20*60 metres in one hour = 20*60*24 metres in one day = 20*60*24*365 metres in one year = 20*60*24*365*100 metres in one century = 20*60*24*365*100*100 centimetres in one century
$${\mathtt{20}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{60}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{24}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{365}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{100}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{100}} = {\mathtt{105\,120\,000\,000}}$$
