Answer:

1 min : 12 min

Explanation:

To simplify the given ratio, convert both to the same unit of time.

1 hour = 60 minutes

3 hours = 3 x 60 minutes

= 180 minutes

So that,

15 min : 3 hours = 15 min : 180 min

divide through by 15 to have;

15 min : 180 min = 1 min : 12 min

Thus the simplified form of the number give is 1 min : 12 min.
