Question 41
Fill in the blanks to make the statements true.
Sleeping time of a python in a 24 hours clock is represented by the shaded portion in figure.
The ratio of sleeping time to awaking time is
By observing above figure, we have sleeping time of python = 18 hours
Awaking time of python = (24 - 18) = 6 hours
Ratio of sleeping time to awaking time = 18 h6 h
= 31 [on dividing numerator and denominator by 6]
= 3 : 1
Hence, the ratio of sleeping time to awaking time is 3 : 1.
