The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. Cody completed the race in
35 of the time taken by Archie. If Julian reached the finishing line at 03 40, what time did Cody cross the finishing line? Leave your answer in 24-hour clock.
Name |
Time taken |
Julian |
245 h |
Archie |
270 min |
Cody |

5 u = 270
1 u = 270 ÷ 5 = 54
Time taken by Cody
= 3 u
= 3 x 54
= 162 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Julian
= 2
45x 60
= 168 min
Difference in time
= 168 - 162
= 6 min
6 min before 03 40 = 03 34
Time that Cody crossed the finishing line = 03 34
Answer(s): 03 34
