  • Distance=200m
  • Speed=4m/s


\\ \sf\longmapsto Speed=(Distance)/(Time)


\\ \sf\longmapsto Time=(Distance)/(Speed)


\\ \sf\longmapsto Time=(200)/(4)


\\ \sf\longmapsto Time=50s

An intermediate swimmer would probably take about four to five minutes, while a trained swimmer could take less than three. The world record is 1:42:00, held by Paul Biedermann. If you are a good swimmer you would swim it easily in 3 and a half minutes.
