Answer:

Harry will take 21 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance covered / time taken

Harry covers 12 miles in 6 minutes so,

the speed of Harry will be 12/6 = 2 miles per minute.

Therefore, if he covers 0.7 miles then time taken by him will be,

Time taken = distance covered / speed

= 0.7 / 2

= 0.35 minutes

= 0.35 x 60 seconds

= 21 seconds

I hope this helps :)
