Answer 1

41.66%

Step-by-step explanation:

1 hours = 60 minutes

60 - 35 = 25

If thirty-five minutes have already elapsed, then remains of the hour:

25 minutes

25 / 60 = 0.4166

0.4166*100 = 41.66%

Answer 2

Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

If your having a hard time dealing with different times like hours and minutes, convert the bigger (hour) to the smaller (minutes).

Convert 1 hour to 1 minute:

1h=60min

35mins have elapsed:

60-35=25

What fraction of the hour remains:

25/60

Simplify:

5/12
