Solution
Timing of a school (10 a.m. to 3.30 p.m) = 5 hours 30 minutes
Timing for lunch interval = 30 minutes
Total time of the class periods = 5 hours 30 minutes – 30 minutes
= 5 hours = 60 × 5 = 300 minutes
Ratio of lunch interval to total time of the class period = 30 minutes : 300 minutes = 1 : 10
