The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. Ian completed the race in
12 of the time taken by Rael. If John reached the finishing line at 03 45, what time did Ian cross the finishing line? Leave your answer in 24-hour clock.
| Name |
Time taken |
| John |
225 h |
| Rael |
224 min |
| Ian |
? |
2 u = 224
1 u = 224 ÷ 2 = 112
Time taken by Ian
= 1 u
= 1 x 112
= 112 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by John
= 2
25x 60
= 144 min
Difference in time
= 144 - 112
= 32 min
32 min before 03 45 = 03 13
Time that Ian crossed the finishing line = 03 13
Answer(s): 03 13
