The time (in hours) it would take Javier to travel 8,786 meters, based on his current travel speed, is 4.22 hours.

Javier's current travel speed per 45 seconds = 26 meters

Javier's current rate of travel per second = 0.5778 meters/second

The total distance Javier travels in a day = 8,786 meters.

The time it would take Javier to travel 8,786 meters = Total Distance/Rate of Travel

8786 meters​/0.5778 meters/second = 15,200 seconds

60 seconds = 1 minute

60 minutes = 1 hour

3,600 (60 x 60) seconds = 1 hour

Travel time = 4.22 hours (15,200/3,600)

Thus, we can conclude that it would take Javier approximately 15,200 seconds to travel 8,786 meters at his current rate of travel, which is equivalent to about 4.22 hours.

Complete Question:

Javier travels 26 meters every 45 seconds. In a day he travels 8,786 meters. What time (in hours) would it take him to travel this distance?
