Distance swam in 5 minutes = 85.4 yards
Since, 1 min = 60 seconds and 1 yard = 0.91 meter
5 minutes =
seconds
85.4 yards =
meters
So, Distance swam in 300 seconds = 77.7 meters
Now, we will use unitary method to determine the distance swam in 70 seconds.
Distance swam in 1 second =
= 0.26 meter
So, Distance swam in 70 seconds = 
= 18.2 meters
Therefore, the swimmer took 70 seconds to cover the distance of 18.2 meters.
Answer:
