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

Mark |

5 u = 250
1 u = 250 ÷ 5 = 50
Time taken by Mark
= 2 u
= 2 x 50
= 100 min
1 h = 60 min
Time taken by Peter
= 2
15x 60
= 132 min
Difference in time
= 132 - 100
= 32 min
32 min before 01 45 = 01 13
Time that Mark crossed the finishing line = 01 13
Answer(s): 01 13
