Rachel's new printer can print 1 2/3 times faster than her old printer. Her old printer could print 9 pages per minute. How many pages per minute can the new printer print?

So you know that you start with 9 then you add 2/3 of 9 which is 6 and 9+6=15 so the new printer can print 15 pages a minute

15 pages because 1 2/3 times 9 is 15
