The proportion of time spent in the gym by a person is ____.
(Refer the pie chart given below)

• A. $\frac{1}{2}$
• B. $\frac{1}{12}$
• C. $\frac{1}{3}$
• D. $\frac{2}{5}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B

$\frac{1}{12}$

Total hours(as per the pie chart)= 12 + 2 + 2 + 8 = 24 hours
Total number of hours spent in the gym = 2 hours
The proportion of time spent in gym
$=\frac{\text{hours spent in the gym}}{\text{total number of hours}}=\frac{2}{24}=\frac{1}{12}$
