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!
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.

1 hour = 60 minutes so 1 hour and 48 minutes = 60 and 48 minutes = 108 minutes. Simple!
