1. The problem asks for the average speed of Beni's cycling given a distance of 1.2 km. 2. Average speed formula is: $$\text{Average speed} = \frac{\text{Total distance}}{\text{Total time}}$$ 3. Since the problem does not provide time explicitly, we assume the question is about identifying the correct average speed from the given options based on the context. 4. The options are 4.5 km/h, 6 km/h, 8 km/h, and 9 km/h. 5. Without additional data on time, the best we can do is select the most reasonable average speed for a cycling distance of 1.2 km. 6. Typical cycling speeds range around 8 to 9 km/h for casual riders. 7. Therefore, the most reasonable answer is 8 km/h. Final answer: C. 8 km/jam
