Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The ratio tells you how they are divided between night and day.

In other words night/ day = 19/32

That's not what you want.

What you want is night over total.

Total

Total = night + day = 19.1 + 32 = 51.1

Night Percent

Night% = Night * 100 / Total

Night% = 19.1 * 100 / 32

Night% = 37.38 %
