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

212 h |
Ben |
254 min |
Justin |

2 u = 254
1 u = 254 ÷ 2 = 127
Time taken by Justin
= 1 u
= 1 x 127
= 127 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Bobby
= 2
12x 60
= 150 min
Difference in time
= 150 - 127
= 23 min
23 min before 01 40 = 01 17
Time that Justin crossed the finishing line = 01 17
Answer(s): 01 17
