~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In a way how this problem is worded, it can not be solved, at all.
To convince yourself, simply read it attentively, focusing on each word.
By the way, who is "she" in this post ?
Also, for what reason the "market" is mentioned here ?
I can imagine, how much those students laugh who receive such assignments from their teachers.
Thank you for making me laughing, too . . .
DIAGNOSIS: this "problem" is good only to make an audience laugh.

distance = rate * time
distance = (5 km per hour) * (15 min)
distance = (5 km per hour) * (15/60 hour)
distance = (5 km per hour) * (0.25 hour)
distance = (5*0.25) km
distance = 1.25 km
distance = (1.25*1000) m
distance = 1250 m
