The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. Andy completed the race in
56 of the time taken by Charlie. If Tom reached the finishing line at 03 40, what time did Andy cross the finishing line? Leave your answer in 24-hour clock.

Time taken |
Tom |
313 h |
Charlie |
228 min |
Andy |

6 u = 228
1 u = 228 ÷ 6 = 38
Time taken by Andy
= 5 u
= 5 x 38
= 190 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Tom
= 3
13x 60
= 200 min
Difference in time
= 200 - 190
= 10 min
10 min before 03 40 = 03 30
Time that Andy crossed the finishing line = 03 30
Answer(s): 03 30
