To calculate the speed in kilometers per hour (km/h), we need to convert the distance from meters to kilometers and the time from seconds to hours.

First, let's convert the distance:

100 meters is equal to 0.1 kilometers (since 1 kilometer is 1000 meters).

Next, let's convert the time:

12 seconds is equal to 0.00333 hours (since there are 3600 seconds in an hour).

Now, we can calculate the speed:

Speed = Distance/Time

Speed = 0.1 kilometers / 0.00333 hours

Speed ≈ 30.03 km/h (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, 100 meters in 12 seconds is approximately equal to 30.03 km/h.
