Answer:

4 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of Lavita’s painting =
1 (2)/(3) m=(5)/(3) m

Length she was able to finish each week=
(3)/(8)m

Now,

If she is able to finish
(3)/(8)m in 1 week

Then


(3)/(8)m = 1 week

1 m =
(8)/(3)m week

Therefore


(5)/(3) m=(8)/(3) * (5)/(3) \text { week }

=
(40)/(9)week

=4.44 week

= 4 weeks (approx.)
