Question

there are 24 hours in a day scientists tell us that we should sleep for 3/8 of a day how much time should we spend sleeping

Answer 1

When you have to find the part of a number, remember that you have to multiply the two numbers (fraction and whole number)

In a day there are 24 hours.
3/8 of a day
Process:
24 X 3/8 = 9
We sleep 9 hours of the day.


Bascially you go 3/8 = .375 Then multiply .375 x 24 = 9
