They are talking about 11 AM and 11PM on wednesday
and 3 PM the next friday
------------------------
11 AM WED to 11 AM THURS = 24 hrs
11 AM THURS to 11 AM FRI = 24 hrs
11 AM FRI to 3 PM FRI = 4 hrs
+24+%2B+24+%2B+4+=+52+ hrs
---------------------------
If I start instead at 11 PM on WED, that will
total 12 hrs less than the above, or
+52+-+12+=+40+ hrs
--------------------------
They want to know the fraction:
+40%2F52+=+10%2F13+
