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

225 h |
Flynn |
220 min |
Ben |

2 u = 220
1 u = 220 ÷ 2 = 110
Time taken by Ben
= 1 u
= 1 x 110
= 110 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Henry
= 2
25x 60
= 144 min
Difference in time
= 144 - 110
= 34 min
34 min before 03 45 = 03 11
Time that Ben crossed the finishing line = 03 11
Answer(s): 03 11
