Answer: 5/6

Explanation:

All we need do is to try to change 50 minutes to hour.

Remember that 60 minutes make 1 hour , so we need to find 50 minutes out of 1 hour , that is 50 minutes out of 60 minutes. Which is 50/60. Therefore:

50 minutes is 50/60 fraction of an hour

50/ 60 is the same as 5/6 in reduced form
