Answer:

16 2/3 %

Explanation:

To put this in a percentage, they need to have the same units.

Let convert days to hours

1 day = 24 hours

Multiply by 3

3 days = 72 hours


The percentage is part over whole

12 hours / 72 hours

We can simplify by dividing top and bottom by 12

1/6

This is a fraction, change this to a decimal

.166666666

Now multiply by 100

16.666666 %

16 2/3 %
