Answer: More infoprmation is needed. A calculation based on assumptions is provided for guidance.

Explanation:

The equation is incorrect. It is written "d=h/d." I'll assume d is distance, If so, the equation shoukld read d = s*t, where s is the speed and t is the time (in the same units as used in s, speed. We also need to know the Persrverence's speed (e.g, 30 km/hr)

Enter the data and solve for time:

d = s*t

3,700km = (30km/hr)*(t) [Using an assumed speed of 30 km/hr)

t = 123.33 hours
