Solution

Step 1: Calculate the time Ann took to walk from the park to the shopping mall.

The speed is given as 60 m/min and the distance is 750 m.

Time = Distance / Speed = 750 m / 60 m/min = 12.5 minutes

Step 2: Calculate the total time Ann took to walk from the school to the shopping mall.

Total time = Time to walk from school to park + Time to walk from park to shopping mall = 5 minutes + 12.5 minutes = 17.5 minutes

Step 3: Calculate Ann's average speed for the whole distance.

Average speed = Total distance / Total time = 1260 m / 17.5 min = 72 m/min

So, Ann's average speed for the whole distance is 72 m/min.
