Answer :

The first quantity as a fraction of the second quantity 5 days ; 1 non-leap =  [tex]\frac{1}{73}[/tex]

The first quantity as a fraction of the second quantity 42 minutes ; 2 hours  = [tex]\frac{7}{20}[/tex]

Fraction:

                A numerical quantity which is not a whole number is called fraction.

   Example :     1/2  ,  3/5

Now,

a. The first quantity as a fraction of the second quantity 5 days ; 1 non-leap

       we know,

                        1 non-leap year =  365 days

Required fraction will be

                                   =  [tex]\frac{5 days}{365 days}[/tex]

                                  =  [tex]\frac{1}{73}[/tex]

A fraction of the second quantity 5 days ; 1 non-leap =  [tex]\frac{1}{73}[/tex]

b. The first quantity as a fraction of the second quantity 42 minutes ; 2 hours

                             we know,

                                             1 hour    = 60 minutes

                                              2 hours  = 60 x 2 minutes

                                                             = 120 minutes

Required fraction will be

                                =  [tex]\frac{42 minutes}{120minutes}[/tex]

                                = [tex]\frac{7}{20}[/tex]

The first quantity as a fraction of the second quantity 42 minutes ; 2 hours  = [tex]\frac{7}{20}[/tex]
