Question

Find 1% of 1 hour.

• A. 36 seconds
• B. 72 seconds
• C. 108 seconds
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A 36 seconds

We know that, 1 hour = 60 minutes

Then,

1% of 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

60 minutes = 60 × 60 = 3600 seconds

Now,

1% of 3600 seconds

= ($\frac{1}{100}$) × 3600

= 1 × 36

= 36 seconds
