Dear Bedpeace, Carly spends 37.5% of her day at work. Use the equation 9/24=37.5%.

Carley spends = 9 hours of a day working her job.

Total number of hours in a day = 24 hours.

We need to find how much percentage of her day does she spend at work.

In order to find the percentage, we need to divide the number of hours of work by total number of hours of the days and multiply by 100.

Therefore,
(9)/(24)* 100.

On dividing 9 by 24, we get 0.375.

Now, multiplying 0.375 by 100, we get 37.50.

Therefore, 37.50% of her day does she spend at work.
