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

Reggie |

2 u = 246
1 u = 246 ÷ 2 = 123
Time taken by Reggie
= 1 u
= 1 x 123
= 123 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Luis
= 2
310x 60
= 138 min
Difference in time
= 138 - 123
= 15 min
15 min before 01 30 = 01 15
Time that Reggie crossed the finishing line = 01 15
Answer(s): 01 15
