Therefore, the fraction of an hour that is 60 seconds is 60/3600, which simplifies to 1/60. So, 60 seconds is 1/60th of an hour.
There are 60 seconds in a min. and 60 mins. in an hour = 3600 seconds in an hour. 19 seconds is therefore 19/3600 of and hour.
1 hour = 60 minutes = 60*60 seconds = 3600 seconds So 20 seconds, as a fraction of an hour = 20/3600 = 1/180
1 hour = 100% 1 minute in an hour = 1/60 therefore 30 seconds in an hour = 1/120
1/240 This is achieved as firstly one minute is 1/60 of an hour. As the are 4 lots of 15 seconds in a minute, you multiply 60 by 4 (60x4) which is 240. Therefore 15 seconds as a fraction of 1 hour is 1/240
