Jody's book was 200 pages long. On Monday she read 1/2 of the book. The next 4 days she read the same amount each day and finished the book. What fraction of the book did she read EACH of those three days?

on each of those 4 days she read 1/4=25% of the book because if she read half on monday and finished on friday then it would be 200 divided by 2 then 100 divided by 4 because of Tuesday, Wensday,Thursday,and Friday.

3 1/2 because because she read 1/2 on Monday in the next four days she read the same so in three days she read 3 1/2 because 3×1/2 is 3 1/2
