Subtract.

1 1/3 - 2/3

Convert 1 1/3 into an improper fraction:

4/3 - 2/3

Subtract the numerators together:

2/3

So he read 2/3 more time on Saturday than on Friday.

Answer: She read 2/3 hour more on Saturday than on Friday.

Explanation:

Here, the number of hour she read on Friday =
(2)/(3)

While, the number of hour she read on Saturday =
1(1)/(3)=(4)/(3)

Hence, the difference between the number of hours she read on Saturday and Friday


=(4)/(3)-(2)/(3)


=(4-2)/(3)


=(2)/(3)

Hence, She read 2/3 hour more on Saturday than on Friday.
