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

Neave |

3 u = 297
1 u = 297 ÷ 3 = 99
Time taken by Neave
= 2 u
= 2 x 99
= 198 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Asher
= 3
45x 60
= 228 min
Difference in time
= 228 - 198
= 30 min
30 min before 01 45 = 01 15
Time that Neave crossed the finishing line = 01 15
Answer(s): 01 15
