Given:

Vijay spends 37.5% of the day sleeping.

Formula used:

Total hours in a day = 24 hours

Hours spent sleeping = (37.5/100) × 24

Hours spent awake = Total hours in a day - Hours spent sleeping

Calculation:

Hours spent sleeping = (37.5/100) × 24

⇒ Hours spent sleeping = 0.375 × 24

⇒ Hours spent sleeping = 9

Hours spent awake = 24 - Hours spent sleeping

⇒ Hours spent awake = 24 - 9

⇒ Hours spent awake = 15

∴ The correct answer is option 1.
