irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Harry will take 21 seconds.

Explanation:

Speed of Harry = $\frac{\text{Distance covered}}{\text{Time taken}}$

Since, Harry covers 12 miles in 6 minutes,

Then the speed of Harry = $\frac{12}{6}$

= 2 miles per minute

If he covers 0.7 miles then time taken by him will be,

Time taken = $\frac{\text{Distance covered}}{\text{Speed}}$

= $\frac{0.7}{2}$

= 0.35 minutes

≈ 0.35 × 60 seconds

= 21 seconds
