Question

Maya chatted online with all her friends for 2/3 of an hour on Saturday and 1/4 of an hour on sunday. During that time period, she chatted with paul for 1/8 of an hour. what fraction of the time maya spent chatting with her friends online was spent chatting with paul?

Answer 1

Time spent with paul : 1/8 h
Total time spent chatting with friends: 2/3h+1/4h=11/12 h

The fraction of the time she spent with paul is (time spent with paul)/(total time spent chatting)

 hence the fraction spent with paul is  (1/8)/(11/12)=3/11

Answer 2

Answer:

2/3 = 16/24

1/4 = 6/24

1/8 = 3/24

(3/24) / (25/24)

(3/24) * (24/25) = 72/600 = 12/100 = 3/25

100 * (1/8)/ (8/12+3/12)

= 100 * (1/8) / (11/12)

= 100 * (3/24)(22/24)

= 100 (3/22)

= 13.6%
