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...).
To find what fraction of a day 80 minutes represents, we first note that a day has 1,440 minutes (24 hours × 60 minutes). Therefore, the fraction of a day that 80 minutes represents is 80/1440, which simplifies to 1/18. Thus, 80 minutes is 1/18 of a day.
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.
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).
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!

It depends on 40 minutes as a fraction of what - an hour, day, week, etc.
