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

335 h |
Cody |
240 min |
Jack |

6 u = 240
1 u = 240 ÷ 6 = 40
Time taken by Jack
= 5 u
= 5 x 40
= 200 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Ian
= 3
35x 60
= 216 min
Difference in time
= 216 - 200
= 16 min
16 min before 03 40 = 03 24
Time that Jack crossed the finishing line = 03 24
Answer(s): 03 24
