Given:

A hiker walks 2.6 miles an hour.

Her trail is 20.8 miles long.

So, the time is taken to finish = distance over the speed

Speed = 2.6 miles an hour

Distance = 20.8 miles

So, time = 20.8/2.6 = 8 hours

As shown, He starts waking at 7 am

So, he will arrive 8 hours after 7 am

So, 7 am + 8 hours = 15 which will be 12 + 3

So, he will arrive at 3 pm

So, the answer will be 3 pm
