Question

Jean can swim 100 meters in 1.86 minutes. Sean can swim the same distance in 2.12 minutes.

Answer 1

Answer:

Sean takes 0.26 of a minute longer than Jean to swim 100 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Time taken by Jean to swim 100 meters = 1.86 minutes,

While, the time taken by Sean to swim the same distance = 2.12 minutes,

Thus, the difference between the time taken by Sean and Jean = 2.12 minutes - 1.86 minutes

= 0.26 minutes,

Hence, Sean takes 0.26 of a minute longer than Jean to swim 100 meters.
