At Priscilla's Purse Warehouse, it takes 2 over 3 of a day to complete 1 over 9 of an order of purses. At this rate, how long will it take to complete the entire order of purses?

Answer 1

2/3 of a day = 1 purse
2/3 ×9 = or 2×9/ 3 =
= 18/3 = 18÷3 = 6
It will take 6 days to complete the entire order of purses

Answer 2

Answer: 6 days

Explanation:

Given: At Priscilla's Purse Warehouse,

It takes
`(2)/(3)` of a day to complete
`(1)/(9)` of an order of purses.

Thus, the number of days to complete
`(1)/(9)` of an order of purses=
`(2)/(3)`

∴ the number of days to complete 1 order of purses=
`(2)/(3)*(9)/(1)=6`

Hence, the number of days to complete the entire order of purses= 6 days
