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

Liam |
262 min |
Tim |

2 u = 262
1 u = 262 ÷ 2 = 131
Time taken by Tim
= 1 u
= 1 x 131
= 131 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Mark
= 2
310x 60
= 138 min
Difference in time
= 138 - 131
= 7 min
7 min before 01 45 = 01 38
Time that Tim crossed the finishing line = 01 38
Answer(s): 01 38
