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

5 u = 250
1 u = 250 ÷ 5 = 50
Time taken by Rael
= 4 u
= 4 x 50
= 200 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Ethan
= 3
25x 60
= 204 min
Difference in time
= 204 - 200
= 4 min
4 min before 02 40 = 02 36
Time that Rael crossed the finishing line = 02 36
Answer(s): 02 36
