To find out how long the cheetah was running, we can use the formula:
\[
\text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}
\]
In this case, the distance is 75 meters, and the speed is 25 meters per second.
Calculating the time:
\[
\text{Time} = \frac{75 \text{ meters}}{25 \text{ meters/second}} = 3 \text{ seconds}
\]
Therefore, the cheetah was running for **3 seconds**.
