Answer:

Yes, he can swim 100 lengths in under 45 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we divide 100 by 5

100 ÷ 5 = 20

Now we can multiply this by 130 seconds

Now we have 2600 seconds

Since 1 minute is 60 seconds we divide 2600 by 60 seconds

2600 ÷ 60, this gets us 43.33... minutes, which is less than 45 minutes.

This is all assuming his rate is constant.
