Solution

Sleeping time of a python in a 24 hour clock is represented by the shaded portion in the following figure.


The ratio of sleeping time to awaking time is 3 : 1.

Explanation:

By observing above figure, we have sleeping time of python = 18 h

Awaking time of python = (24 – 18) = 6 h 

Ratio of sleeping time to awaking time = `(18  h)/(6  h)`

= `3/1`  ...[On dividing numerator and denominator by 6]
