So if we need to cover 1000 meters. And we go at a speed of 4.3 m/s. That means that every 4.3 meters we cover is 1 second. So we divide both amd get

1000/4.3 = 232.56 is approx the answer. Also the meters cancel out because

m / (m/s) = m*s/m, cancels out giving s as a unit.

Therefore the answer is 232.56 seconds
