Question

carley beat the school record for the 400 meter run by 1.3 seconds. if she ran the race in 55.7 seconds what was the record?

Answer 1

If Carley ran the 400 meter run in a total of 55.7 seconds and she beat the record by 1.3 seconds, you would add 55.7 and 1.3

55.7+1.3= 57 seconds

The past school record for the girls 400 meter run was 57 seconds

Hope this helps ;)
