Morgan ran around a school track in 89 seconds. Taylor ran in 1.32 seconds. Who completed the laps faster and by how much?
I suspect a typo.
Perhaps you meant 1.32 minutes or 132 seconds.
But as the question is, Taylor ran the lap faster since 1.32 seconds is less than 89 seconds.
89 seconds minus 1.32 seconds = 87.68 seconds faster.
