To find the time it took Dita to finish the race, we can use the formula:

\[
\text{time} = \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{rate}}
\]

In this case, the distance is 100 meters, and the rate is 6.25 meters per second. Plugging in the values:

\[
\text{time} = \frac{100 \text{ meters}}{6.25 \text{ meters/second}} = 16 \text{ seconds}
\]

So, it took Dita **16 seconds** to finish the race. The correct answer is:

• 16 seconds
