Answer:

70% of the meeting is left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to convert the hours to minutes.

Since 1 hour = 60 minutes

For 2 hours:

1 /60 = 2/x

x = 2 (60)

x = 120 minutes

So, a scout meeting last 120 minutes (2 hours)

36 minutes already spent.

120-36 = 84 minutes left

So, if 120 is the 100% of the meeting, for 84 minutes:

120/100 = 84/x

1.2 =84/x

x = 84/1.2

x = 70%

70% of the meeting is left.
