A tortoise and a hare race against each other. A hare runs at a constant speed of 36 km per hour for exactly ten seconds and waits for the tortoise to catch up. If the tortoise takes two hours to move 1 km, how long will it take to catch up?

well, how far does the hare go?

distance = speed * time
what do I multiply
36 * 10 ?
not quite. You have to watch the units. 10 seconds is 1/360 hours.
