Tommy notices that he reads 2/3 page in one minute. At that rate, how long will it take him to read 12 pages?

Well we already know that it takes him 1 min for him to read 2/3 pages.So when it says 12 you have to multiply.You also have to estimate, you have to think which one you think would be it...there’s no right or wrong answer in this. So what you do is 12x whatever u think...Also u have to pick 2 or 3

The answer would be 18 minutes, because 12 divided by 2/3 is 18 which would be 18 minutes
