Question

Ethan writes 2/3 of a page in 5/12 of a minute. How much time does it take him to write one page

Answer 1

2/3 of a page in 5/12 of a minute

Multiply both fractions by 3/2


`(2)/(3) * (3)/(2) = 1`


`(5)/(12) * (3)/(2) = (5)/(4) * (1)/(2)=(5)/(8)`

So, Ethan can read 1 page in 5/8 of a minute.
