Explanation:

Answer 2

Deondra read at a rate of 26 pages per hour.

Given:

- Pages read:
`\(8 (2)/(3)\)`

- Time:
`\((1)/(3)\)` hour

To find the rate in pages per hour, you can use the formula:

`\[ \text{Rate} = \frac{\text{Pages Read}}{\text{Time}} \]`

Substitute the given values:

`\[ \text{Rate} = (8 (2)/(3))/((1)/(3)) \]`

To simplify, convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:

`\[ \text{Rate} = ((26)/(3))/((1)/(3)) \]`

Now, divide the numerators and denominators:

`\[ \text{Rate} = (26)/(1) \]`

So, Deondra read at a rate of 26 pages per hour.
