x=p/5,y=p/4
Your first question makes no sense. What did the problem description and question really say?

36 minutes of 1 day?
%2836%2F60%29%2F24
%286%2F10%29%2F24
%283%2F5%29%2F24
3%2F%285%2A24%29
3%2F%285%2A3%2A8%29
1%2F%285%2A8%29
1%2F40-----the fraction

As percentage, 100%2F40=10%2F4=5%2F2=highlight%282.5%2Apercent%29
