  1. Don't remind me of math! I hate math! LOL, but yeah, what the others said should work good for you.


  2. There are lots of ways to show that as a fraction.

    The first thing you have to think of is "what is it out of"? 35 minutes out of what? 60 minutes (1 hour). So, your first fraction could be:

    2 35/60

    But that's not reduced, so you'd divide the numerator AND the denominator by 5:

    2 7/12

    If you need an improper fraction, then you add your 2 whole (2 * 12) to your 7: 24+7= 31, so 31/12.

  3. 2 hours are like 2 whole numbers and 35 minutes is like 35/60 (/60 being out of 60 minutes)  so it would be 2 and 35/60 if you need to simplify it is 2 and 7/12

  4. Try 35/60 get its lowest term that would be... 7/12 plus 2hrs that would be a mixed fraction of 2 7/12 and convert the mixed fraction to a fraction that would be 12 X 2 plus 7 = 31 and the denomitar 12 so.... the answer is 31/12 if you what to make sure this is correct 31/12 = 2.58333 , that would be 2 hours "plus" .583333 x 60 minutes = 35mins add them up you get 2 hours and 35 minutes is the same as 31/12

  5. an easy thing to do would be find the GCF of 60 and 35 since you have 35/60 minutes (towards the third hour).  The GCF is 5, so divide both 35 and 60 by 5 to get that fraction in simplest form = 7/12.  Now you have 2 and 7/12.  If you want an improper fraction, multiply 12 x 2 and add 7 = 31.  Keep the denominator and you have 31/12.

  6. Divide 35 by 60 and round
