The table here shows a cardiac cycle which can be divided into 8 blocks, each of 0.1 seconds. The question asks for the amount of time the ventricle is relaxed in 1 minute.
In a period of 0.8s (what the table shows), the ventricle is relaxed for 5 out of 8 blocks (5/8). This means the ventricle is relaxed for 0.5s (5 x 0.1s) for every 0.8s period.
We now want to find out how long the ventricle is relaxed for in 1 minute (60 seconds). There are 75 (60/0.8s) of 0.8s in 1 minute. You then do 75 x 0.5s to figure out the time in 1 minute.
