The time represented by a 10-hour day format at 6 pm n the 24-hour day format is 7.5 hours, the correct option is D.

Fraction is the part of the whole, It is represented in the form of p/q, where q is not equal to zero.

The days are divided into hours, minutes, and seconds

The 6 pm time represents 18 hours

The total time is 24 hours so

6 pm represents an 18/24 portion of the day
