To find the answer, we need to convert the given number of minutes to an improper fraction of an hour.
Given information:
1 hour = 60 minutes
Chapter duration = 65 minutes
To convert the minutes to hours, we divide the given number of minutes by 60.
65 minutes ÷ 60 minutes = 1 hour + 5 minutes
So, the chapter duration is 1 hour and 5 minutes.
Next, we need to convert this to an improper fraction.
Since 1 hour is equal to 60 minutes, we can write the chapter duration as:
1 hour + 5 minutes = 1 + 5/60 hours
Now, we can simplify this fraction.
5/60 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 5.
5 ÷ 5 = 1
60 ÷ 5 = 12
So, the simplified fraction is 1/12.
Thus, the correct answer is B. 13/12.
