Answer 2

62.5%

Explanation:

Split the time up into 5 minute slots. That gives us 24 slots of 5 minutes.

20/5=4 of the 5 minute slots playing outside

25/5=5 of the 5 minute slots on his phone

5+4=9 out of 24 slots spent

24-9=15 slots remaining to play his instrument

15/24x100=62.5% time playing instrument
