Answer:

Average speed = 9.91 m/s

Explanation :

Total distance covered by a runner = 200 m

Time taken to complete this distance = 20.19 sec

We need to find the average of runner speed in meter/sec

We use the speed,  distance, time formula

[tex]speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

speed = [tex]\frac{200}{20.19}[/tex]

Average speed = 9.91 m/s

that's the final answer.
