Total time = 2 hours
Time playing video games = 50 minutes
We have to write an equation:
Total time (2hours) multiplied by the percentage in decimal form (x) must be equal to 50 minutes
Time must be in the same unit ( minutes)
since 60 minutes =1 hour
2 hours = 2 (60) =120 minutes
Back with the equation:
120 x = 50
Solving for x
x = 50/120
x = 0.42
In percentage form:
0.42 x 100 = 42%
