The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. John completed the race in
56 of the time taken by Henry. If Andy reached the finishing line at 02 25, what time did John cross the finishing line? Leave your answer in 24-hour clock.

Time taken |
Andy |
334 h |
Henry |
258 min |
John |

6 u = 258
1 u = 258 ÷ 6 = 43
Time taken by John
= 5 u
= 5 x 43
= 215 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Andy
= 3
34x 60
= 225 min
Difference in time
= 225 - 215
= 10 min
10 min before 02 25 = 02 15
Time that John crossed the finishing line = 02 15
Answer(s): 02 15
