The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. Jack completed the race in

Time taken |
Glen |
225 h |
Ryan |
225 min |
Jack |

5 u = 225
1 u = 225 ÷ 5 = 45
Time taken by Jack
= 3 u
= 3 x 45
= 135 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Glen
= 2
25x 60
= 144 min
Difference in time
= 144 - 135
= 9 min
9 min before 03 45 = 03 36
Time that Jack crossed the finishing line = 03 36
Answer(s): 03 36
