The table shows the time taken by some men to complete the night marathon. Luis completed the race in
12 of the time taken by Fred. If Tom reached the finishing line at 03 45, what time did Luis cross the finishing line? Leave your answer in 24-hour clock.
Name |
Time taken |
Tom |
256 h |
Fred |
296 min |
Luis |
? |
2 u = 296
1 u = 296 ÷ 2 = 148
Time taken by Luis
= 1 u
= 1 x 148
= 148 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Tom
= 2
56x 60
= 170 min
Difference in time
= 170 - 148
= 22 min
22 min before 03 45 = 03 23
Time that Luis crossed the finishing line = 03 23
Answer(s): 03 23
