Question

Express:

$20$seconds as a fraction of a $1$ $minute$.

Answer 1

Since, $1minute=60seconds$.

Therefore, the fractional representation of $20$ seconds with respect to $60$seconds can be written as $\frac{20}{60}$ or $\frac{1}{3}$(dividing numerator and denominator by $20$).

Thus, $20$seconds as a fraction of $1$ minute $=\frac{1}{3}$.
