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

Time taken |
Eric |
334 h |
Harry |
292 min |
Ken |

4 u = 292
1 u = 292 ÷ 4 = 73
Time taken by Ken
= 3 u
= 3 x 73
= 219 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Eric
= 3
34x 60
= 225 min
Difference in time
= 225 - 219
= 6 min
6 min before 01 40 = 01 34
Time that Ken crossed the finishing line = 01 34
Answer(s): 01 34
