Answer:

177 lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, If someone runs 1 mile in 10 minutes then the number of calories used by him is 62 % of his weight ( in lb ).

That is, Calories burned = 62 % of Weight ( in lb ),

Given,

Calories burned by the person = 110,

Also, he runs 1 miles in 10 minutes,

Let his weight is w lb.

[tex]110 = 62\% \text{ of }w[/tex]

[tex]110 = \frac{62w}{100}[/tex]

[tex]\implies w = \frac{11000}{62}=177.41935\approx 177[/tex]

Hence, the weight of the person is 177 lb.
