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

Gabriel |

3 u = 231
1 u = 231 ÷ 3 = 77
Time taken by Gabriel
= 2 u
= 2 x 77
= 154 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Glen
= 2
35x 60
= 156 min
Difference in time
= 156 - 154
= 2 min
2 min before 01 35 = 01 33
Time that Gabriel crossed the finishing line = 01 33
Answer(s): 01 33
