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

2 u = 244
1 u = 244 ÷ 2 = 122
Time taken by John
= 1 u
= 1 x 122
= 122 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Neave
= 2
13x 60
= 140 min
Difference in time
= 140 - 122
= 18 min
18 min before 03 40 = 03 22
Time that John crossed the finishing line = 03 22
Answer(s): 03 22
