Question

How lond does it take harry to go 0.7 miles if he can run 12 miles in 6 minutes

Answer 1

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
