To determine what fraction of the day is 9 hours, we first need to establish how many hours are in a day. Since a day consists of 24 hours, we can express 9 hours as a fraction of the day by dividing 9 by 24. This simplifies to 3/8. Therefore, 9 hours is 3/8 or three-eighths of a day.
3 hours is 1/8 of a full day. 3 hours divided by 24 (hours in a day) = 3/24 = 1/8 (This could vary with the number of hours in the "day" you are considering: a full day, day as opposed to night, or a work day.)
8 hours : day = 8 hours : 24 hours = 1 : 3
24 hours in a day therefore 9 hours = 9/24 or 3/8
a day has 24hours so 21hours make out 21/24 which can be furthur solved to 7/8 in terms of fraction.
