Question

How is 2 hours and 30 minutes more than 10% of the day

Answer 1

In order to find what 10% of a day is:

A day is 24 hours long.

Divide 24 by 100, then multiply the answer by 10.

24/100=0.24
0.24*10=2.4

So, 10% of the day is 2.4 hours.

2 hours and 30 minutes can be written as a decimal as 2.5.

So, 2 hours and 30 minutes is slightly more than 10% of the day.
