The 40% of one hour is 24 minutes. U can get to that result by multiplying 60(one hour) by 0.40.
Hope this help!

Answer:

2/5 of an hour and 24 min

Explanation:

Minutes:

  1. Turn the percent into a fraction to get 40/100
  2. Once you get 40/100 simplify to get 2/5
  3. After getting 2/5 multiply that with 60 (or make 60 into a fraction of 60/1) to get 120/5
  4. Again simplify the fraction 120/5 to get 24.

Hours:

*Very easy*

  1. Go back to step 3 for the minutes, and you will have your answer of 2/5 hours.

I hoped I helped you :)
