The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. Oscar completed the race in
45 of the time taken by Zane. If Henry reached the finishing line at 03 30, what time did Oscar cross the finishing line? Leave your answer in 24-hour clock.

Time taken |
Henry |
334 h |
Zane |
265 min |
Oscar |

5 u = 265
1 u = 265 ÷ 5 = 53
Time taken by Oscar
= 4 u
= 4 x 53
= 212 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Henry
= 3
34x 60
= 225 min
Difference in time
= 225 - 212
= 13 min
13 min before 03 30 = 03 17
Time that Oscar crossed the finishing line = 03 17
Answer(s): 03 17
