Question

Darrell has run many marathons and keeps track of all of his finishing times. At a race last month, he finished in 210 minutes. At his next race, he finished with a time that was 20% longer. What was his finishing time at the most recent race?

Answers

GPT 3.5
His finishing time at the most recent race was 252 minutes.

To calculate this, we first need to find 20% of his finishing time at the previous race:
20% of 210 minutes = 0.20 x 210 = 42 minutes

His finishing time at the recent race is his previous finishing time plus the additional 20%:
210 + 42 = 252 minutes

Therefore, Darrell's finishing time at the most recent race was 252 minutes.
