            Wording is horrible,  but I will not discuss it or correct it,  at all,
            and will go straight to the solution.


Write governing equation, connecting acceleration "a", time "t" and distance "d"

    d = %28at%5E2%29%2F2.


With the given data, it takes form

    20 = %28a%2A2%5E2%29%2F2,

or

    20 = 2a.


From this equation, you momentarily get the  ANSWER  a = 20/2 = 10 m/s^2.

Solved.
