Answer:

He will finish the biking at 6:30 pm

Explanation:

1/4 hour is same as 1/4 * 60 = 15 minutes

1 2/5 miles is same as 1.4 miles

He bikes 1.4 miles in 15 minutes

then he will bike 14 miles in 15 * 10 = 150 minutes

150

minutes is same as 2 hours 30 minutes

Adding this to 4 pm, we will get;

6:30 pm
