Question

QUESTION 10 of 10: You exercise for 30 minutes, twice each day. What approximate percentage of your day is spent on exercise?

a) 2.5%
b) 4%
c) 10%
d) 24%

Answer 1

To calculate the approximate percentage of your day spent on exercise, divide the total minutes spent on exercise by the total minutes in a day, and multiply by 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the approximate percentage of your day spent on exercise, you need to determine the total number of minutes in a day and divide it by the number of minutes you spend exercising. There are 24 hours in a day, and each hour has 60 minutes, so the total number of minutes in a day is 24 x 60 = 1440 minutes.

If you exercise for 30 minutes, twice each day, you spend a total of 30 x 2 = 60 minutes on exercise. To find the percentage, divide 60 by 1440 and multiply by 100. The approximate percentage of your day spent on exercise is (60 / 1440) x 100 ≈ 4%. Therefore, the correct answer is option b) 4%.
