speed=distance/time
distance = 10,000 m
time= 27 min 30.42s but we need to convert that completely to seconds
(27x60)+30.42= 1650.12 rounded to 1650
speed=10,000/1650.12
speed=6.059063
Because when we do sig dig we round to the least number of digits we would round to 4 because 1650.12 gets rounded to 1650
so 6.059 m/s
