The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. Bobby completed the race in
23 of the time taken by John. If Charlie reached the finishing line at 02 45, what time did Bobby cross the finishing line? Leave your answer in 24-hour clock.

Time taken |
| Charlie |
245 h |
| John |
225 min |
| Bobby |
? |
3 u = 225
1 u = 225 ÷ 3 = 75
Time taken by Bobby
= 2 u
= 2 x 75
= 150 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Charlie
= 2
45x 60
= 168 min
Difference in time
= 168 - 150
= 18 min
18 min before 02 45 = 02 27
Time that Bobby crossed the finishing line = 02 27
Answer(s): 02 27
