Question

How many seconds in 5/12 of a minute?

Answer 1

1/12 of 1 minute = 5 seconds
5 x 5 = 25
5/12 = 25 seconds

Answer 2

If there is 60 seconds in a minute, try to find the denominator of 12 to go into 60.
60/12 = 5.

Now multiply that by the numerator, which is 5.

5 x 5 = 25.

There are 25 seconds in 5/12 of a minute.
