Answer:

76 seconds (1:16 one hour and 16 minutes)

Step-by-step explanation:

You take the distance that he has to travel (114m) and you divide it by the distance you're given that he is moving at every time (6m). this gives us 19. Then you take that and multiply it by how many seconds it takes him to move the given 6m (4s), which gives us an answer of 76 seconds
