Olympics Maths Challenge 6

For this challenge, we had to create our own route of the Olympic Torch. The route we created needed to include a map connecting to all the places of the Olympic Torch. The route I created went from Norway to Leicester, Leicester to Oxford, Oxford to London and London to Cambridge. The total distance of my route in kilometers is 512 km. The total amount of minutes it takes to travel on my route is 430m. If the route passed through from Norway to Oxford, passing through Cambridge, the time would be 3h and 35m, and the total time would be 7h and 20 m whereas the original time of the route would be 7h and 10m, adding an extra 10 minutes on.

By trying to find the longest traveling route for the Olympic Torch in terms of distance, the results are 573 km by going from London to Oxford then to Cambridge, and from Cambridge to Leicester ending at Norwich. The original kilometer total was 512 km. The shortest route in terms of distance I could find was 512 km. The route went from Norway to Leicester, Leicester to Oxford, Oxford to London and London to Cambridge.

When comparing the longest and shortest route in terms of time, it takes 10 hours total. For the shortest route, it takes a total of 7 hours and 10 minutes.
