Answer:
1/2 or 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is too simple.
12 hours of sleep for the every 24 hours in a day is 12/24.
Simplify to get 1/2.
12/24 = 0.5 = 50%
Answer:
Percent of the day Amy's dog sleeps = 50 %
[tex]\texttt{Fraction of the number of hours Amy's dog sleeps = }\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Amy's dog sleeps for 12 hours each night.
Duration of sleeping of Amy's dog = 12 hours
Duration of one day = 24 hours.
So we need to find what percentage is 12 hours of 24 hours.
[tex]\texttt{Percent of the day Amy's dog sleeps = }\frac{12}{24}\times 100=50\%[/tex]
[tex]\texttt{Fraction of the number of hours Amy's dog sleeps = }\frac{12}{24}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
