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

| Archie |

3 u = 231
1 u = 231 ÷ 3 = 77
Time taken by Archie
= 2 u
= 2 x 77
= 154 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Luke
= 2
35x 60
= 156 min
Difference in time
= 156 - 154
= 2 min
2 min before 03 45 = 03 43
Time that Archie crossed the finishing line = 03 43
Answer(s): 03 43
