The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. Dylan completed the race in
12 of the time taken by Japheth. If Billy reached the finishing line at 03 35, what time did Dylan cross the finishing line? Leave your answer in 24-hour clock.

Time taken |
Billy |
2310 h |
Japheth |
242 min |
Dylan |

2 u = 242
1 u = 242 ÷ 2 = 121
Time taken by Dylan
= 1 u
= 1 x 121
= 121 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Billy
= 2
310x 60
= 138 min
Difference in time
= 138 - 121
= 17 min
17 min before 03 35 = 03 18
Time that Dylan crossed the finishing line = 03 18
Answer(s): 03 18
