It is: 30/1440 = 1/48 of a day
1/48 day
4/5
48 minutes is 4/15 of 3 hours. 48 minuets sounds like Johann Sebastian's manic week following a 5-day binge.

One hour consists of 60 minutes. Therefore, our fraction we need is 48/60.If we put 48/60 into a calculator, we obtain 0.8.0.8 as a fraction of 1 is 4/5. Thus, 48 minutes is 4/5 of 60.A good knowledge of the 12 times table removes the need for the calculator in thus example (12,24,36,48,60...).
A whole day is 24 hours. So a fraction of a day is a fraction of 24 hours - to convert the fraction to hours, multiply it by 24: For example ½ a day is ½ × 24 hours = 12 hours. 1/5 day is 1/5 × 24 hours = 4 4/5 hours or 4.8 hours. In this case the fraction of an hour can be converted into minutes as there are 60 minutes in an hour: multiply by 60. So the 4/5 hour becomes 4/5 × 60 minutes = 48 minutes. Thus 1/5 day = 4 hours 48 minutes. To convert hours to a fraction of a day, as there are 24 hours in a day, put the number of ours as the numerator over 24 as the denominator, and then simplify. For example 3 hours is 3/24 = 1/8 day; For example 5 hours is 5/24 day (this is a simple as it gets as 5 and 24 have no common factor other than 1).
The answer depends on the units used for 48. It should be blindingly obvious to anybody that the answer for 48 minutes and 48 days will be very different.
Well, sweetheart, 48 minutes is 48/60 of an hour, which simplifies to 4/5. So, if you want to know what fraction of 3 hours is 48 minutes, just multiply 3 by 4/5. That gives you 12/5 hours, which is 2 and 2/5 hours. Voilà!
