Answer: 7 minutes and 30 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The boy runs at the rate of 7m in 9 sec
=> He runs 1m in (9/7) sec
Hence, for 350m, he will need:
350 * (9/7) sec
= 50 * 9 sec
= 450 sec
= 7 min and 30 sec
Alternate method:
As the boy runs at the same speed, the ratio of distance to time will remain the same. This therefore becomes a problem of ratio and proportion.
We know that If a:b :: c:d, then (a/b) = (c/d)
Using the above we get:
7:9 :: 350:x
7/9 = 350/x
x = (350 * 9) / 7
= 50 * 9
= 450 sec
= 7 min 30 sec
