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

Lee |

5 u = 215
1 u = 215 ÷ 5 = 43
Time taken by Lee
= 3 u
= 3 x 43
= 129 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Luke
= 2
13x 60
= 140 min
Difference in time
= 140 - 129
= 11 min
11 min before 03 30 = 03 19
Time that Lee crossed the finishing line = 03 19
Answer(s): 03 19
