Explanation:

Step1: Find the number of students who spend more than an hour

The number of students who spend more than an hour is \(44\).

Step2: Find the total number of students

The total number of students is \(82\).

Step3: Calculate the percentage

The formula for percentage is \(\frac{\text{part}}{\text{whole}}\times100\). So, \(\frac{44}{82}\times100=\frac{4400}{82}\approx53.7\)

Answer:

\(53.7\%\)
