Answer 2

Given :-

tanay plays for 5/2 hours.

TO FIND :-

how much time does he spend in playing basket in a day.

STEP BY STEP EXPLAINATION:-

$\frac{5}{2} hours \: = 2.5hours$

Total number of hours,in one day= 24.

so,

how much percentage is 2.5 of 24.

This is what to be calculated.

$percentage = \frac{number \: of \: hours}{total \: number \: of \: hours} \times 100$

therefore,

$\frac{2.5}{24} \times 100$

$= > \frac{250}{24} \times 1$

=> 10.41 hours.

HE SPENDS 10.41% OF TIME IN A DAY PLAYING BASKETBALL!!
