    100 % in 12 hours

    1 % in 12/100 hours

    95 % in (12/100)(95) hours = (95)(12)/100 = 11.4 hours

    0.6 hours is left

    36 minutes is left

    12 hours times 0.95 = 95% of 12 hours

    12 - (the answer you just got) = how much time is left in hours.

    The time you're looking for is:

    12*(1-95%)

    = 12*(5%)

    = 12*(0.05)

    = 0.6 hours
