Answer:

7 : 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that:

1 hour = 60 minutes

5 hours = 5 x 60 minutes

5 hours = 300 minutes

35 minutes : 5 hours = 35 minutes : 300 minutes

35 minutes : 5 hours = 35 : 300

Divide both the numerator and denominator by 5

35 minutes : 5 hours = (35 ÷ 5) : (300 ÷ 5)

35 minutes : 5 hours = 7 : 60
