I would expect that period of time to comprise 3/4 of a full cycleof phases, or about 22.15 days.

compounding of interest refers to the action wherein, the interest paid to us over a period of time would increase gradually.Ex: Lets say you invest Rs. 10000/- at 10% per annum which is compounded every quarter.So interest for first quarter: Rs. 250/-Principal at the end of first quarter: 10,250/-Interest for second quarter: Rs. 256.25/-Principal at the end of second quarter: 10,506.25/-the increase in interest in the second quarter is because, the interest paid during the first quarter is also considered for interest payment in the second quarter. So, even though the principal amount we invested remains the same the interest varies because of compounding of interest.The shorter the compounding period, greater is the interest earned.Simple interest is to charge interest on the principle amount.compound interest is the interest calculated on the simple interest!
That's the "First Quarter" moon, but when you look at it, you see 1/2 of thedisk lit up.The name "First Quarter" means that a quarter of the time has passed fromone New Moon to the next ... technically, 7.38 days. (rounded)

The time between each principal moon phase is roughly a week. Specifically, from New Moon to First Quarter Moon is about 7 days, from First Quarter to Full Moon is another 7 days, from Full Moon to Last Quarter Moon is approximately 7 days, and from Last Quarter back to New Moon is around 7 days as well.
It takes about 7 days for the moon to transition between each of the four principal phases: new moon, first quarter, full moon, and last quarter.
Approximately 14 days must elapse between the first-quarter moon and the third-quarter moon. This period represents half of a full lunar cycle, which lasts about 29.5 days.
The first quarter is the first part of a sporting event like football, Basketball, and hockey. There are four quarters altogether. What does first quarter moon mean?
The time period between each moon phase is around 7.4 days, with the four main phases (new moon, first quarter, full moon, last quarter) occurring approximately every 29.5 days in a complete lunar cycle.
The time period from waxing crescent to first quarter is approximately 7 days. During this phase, the illuminated portion of the Moon continues to increase until it reaches the first quarter phase, where half of the Moon's surface is visible from Earth.
I would expect that period of time to comprise 3/4 of a full cycleof phases, or about 22.15 days.
The incubation phase of a disease is the time period that elapses between exposure to a disease causative agent or a pathogenic organism and when the first symptoms occur, for example incubation period of Cellulitis is 1 day, and that of Influenza is 2 days.
The moon cycles through 4 phases every month. There are about 3 weeks between the first and last quarter phases of the moon.
I believe that the anwser is last quarter.

It isn't specifically stated but most assume that it is only a matter of a few minutes from beginning to end.
