Determine whether the statement makes sense. Explain your answer.

"I can run 4000 meters in approximately 1 hour."

Answer :

The statement 'I can run 4000 meters in approximately 1 hour' makes sense.

4000 meters is equal to 4 kilometers (since 1 kilometer = 1000 meters). If you can run 4 kilometers in 1 hour, your speed would be 4 km/h (kilometers per hour). A normal walking speed is about 5 km/h, while a jogging speed can be around 6-10 km/h.

Given that the speed of 4 km/h is lower than a typical jogging speed and slightly less than an average walking speed, it is reasonable that someone could run 4000 meters in 1 hour.
