distance. A man passes the 8th flag in 8 seconds. How many

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
