Cody wants to watch a new movie that is 3 hours long. he has watched 1/6 of the movie so far. what fraction of one hour did cody spend watching the new movie?

To find 1/6 of the time, you will need to convert the hours into minutes. So 3x60 minutes equals 180 minutes. Now that you have that converted into minutes, you can divide the 180 by 6. 

180/6 = 30. So Cody has watched 30 minutes of the movie. 

30 minutes is 1/2 of an hour.
