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

3310 h |
Brandon |
234 min |
Charlie |

6 u = 234
1 u = 234 ÷ 6 = 39
Time taken by Charlie
= 5 u
= 5 x 39
= 195 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Michael
= 3
310x 60
= 198 min
Difference in time
= 198 - 195
= 3 min
3 min before 01 35 = 01 32
Time that Charlie crossed the finishing line = 01 32
Answer(s): 01 32
