Internet: 23% to the nearest percent.

Video games: 31% to the nearest percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total free time Gary has in a week is 7*5 = 35 hours.

The percent of time he spends on the internet = (8*100) / 35

= 23% approximately.

Percent of time playing games = (11 * 100) / 35

= 31% approximately.
