D Correct answer
Explanation

Speed = Distance / Time. 5 km / (5/60) hours = 5 * 12 = 60 km/hr.

AI explanation

Using the formula speed equals distance divided by time, we first convert 5 minutes to hours by dividing by 60, yielding 1/12 hours. The required speed is 5 km divided by 1/12 hours. The car must travel at 60 km/h.
