Answer
Find out the how long did they rest in 8 hours.
To prove
As given
contestants in a dance-a-thon rest for the same amount of time every hour.
A couple rests for 25 minutes in 5 hours .
As
25 mintues = 5 hours
1 h o u rs = 5 25 ​ min t u es
1 hours = 5 mintues
Thus in 1hours a the dance -a-thon rest for 5 mintues.
Now for 8 hours.
8 hours = 8 × 5 mintues
** = 40 mintues**
Therefore in 8 hours a dance-a-thon rest for 40 mintues.

The couple rests for 5 minutes each hour. In 8 hours, that totals to 40 minutes of rest. Therefore, in 8 hours, they will rest for 40 minutes.
