The question states that Bob spends 2 hours a day on the phone [which basically answers the how much time does he spend]. Next, find the total amount of hours in his day, which is 8 [stated in the question].

Write a fraction from the given information;

2/8, then simplify, by diving both the numerator and denominator by 2.

Therefore,

C) 1/4
