Answer / thirulokchander
since there are 12 consecutive flags and the man passes the
8th flag in 8sec then he takes 8/7 times the time to cross

be passed in approx. 4.56sec i.e.1.14*4

Answer / vishal
the man passes 8th flag in 8 sec... here the qtn has 8 TH,
denoting after 7 TH flag, he passes the * TH flag, in 8
seconds... that means to pass one flag, it takes 8 seconds.
for 4 more flags, it will take 8 x 4 = 32 seconds...

Answer / sudhasravanthi
There are 0-11=12flags are there
starting from 0 and to pass 7th one it takes 8sec
for each flag it takes 8/7sec
now remaing are 4
stating from 8th flag it remains 3 flag to pass
so it takes 3*8/7sec=24/7=3.4285sec
it takes 3.4285sec to pass remaing flags
