Given:
Brooke and Lamont ran a half marathon. Brooke finished in 1 hour 50 minutes, Lamont finished in 100 minute.
To find:
Who had the faster time?
Solution:
We know that,
1 hour = 60 minutes
Time taken by Brooke = 1 hour 50 minutes
= 60 minutes + 50 minutes
= 110 minutes
Time taken by Lamont = 100 minutes.
Since the time taken by Lamont is less than the Brooke, therefore Lamont had the faster time.
