Answer:

$223.68 minutes$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Cruise ship travel east across the river=19 m/minute

Total width of river=4250 m

We have to find time taken by ship to reach other side of the river.

Time taken by ship for travelling 19 m=1 minute

Time taken by ship for travelling 1 m= $\frac{1}{19}$ minute

Time taken by ship for travelling 4250 m= $\frac{1}{19}\times 4250=223.68minutes$

Hence, the time taken by ship to reach the other side= $223.68$ minutes
