Given

Bad weather stopped a cricket game for 35 minutes of a schedule 3 1/5 hour match.

Percentage

Percentage basically defines the ratio of any value to a whole value multiplied by 100.

The number of hours is;

[tex]\rm =3\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\= \dfrac{3\times 5+1}{5}\\\\= \dfrac{15+1}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{16}{5}\\\\=3.2\\\\\text{Out of 3 and 1/2 hrs} \\\\= 3.5 \times 60=210 \ minutes[/tex]

Therefore,

The percentage of the scheduled time was lost is;

[tex]= \dfrac{35}{210}\times 100\\\\= \dfrac{3500}{210}\\\\=16.66[/tex]

Hence, there is 16.66 percent of the scheduled time was lost.
