The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. Charlie completed the race in
23 of the time taken by Liam. If Pierre reached the finishing line at 03 30, what time did Charlie cross the finishing line? Leave your answer in 24-hour clock.
Name |
Time taken |
Pierre |
235 h |
Liam |
228 min |
Charlie |

3 u = 228
1 u = 228 ÷ 3 = 76
Time taken by Charlie
= 2 u
= 2 x 76
= 152 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Pierre
= 2
35x 60
= 156 min
Difference in time
= 156 - 152
= 4 min
4 min before 03 30 = 03 26
Time that Charlie crossed the finishing line = 03 26
Answer(s): 03 26
