The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. Liam completed the race in
56 of the time taken by Oscar. If Julian reached the finishing line at 01 30, what time did Liam cross the finishing line? Leave your answer in 24-hour clock.
Name |
Time taken |
Julian |
3310 h |
Oscar |
234 min |
Liam |
? |
6 u = 234
1 u = 234 ÷ 6 = 39
Time taken by Liam
= 5 u
= 5 x 39
= 195 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Julian
= 3
310x 60
= 198 min
Difference in time
= 198 - 195
= 3 min
3 min before 01 30 = 01 27
Time that Liam crossed the finishing line = 01 27
Answer(s): 01 27
