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

Oliver |

5 u = 230
1 u = 230 ÷ 5 = 46
Time taken by Oliver
= 3 u
= 3 x 46
= 138 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Carl
= 2
13x 60
= 140 min
Difference in time
= 140 - 138
= 2 min
2 min before 01 40 = 01 38
Time that Oliver crossed the finishing line = 01 38
Answer(s): 01 38
