Question

I really need help on these two. Its fine if you dont get both of them. i will give you 25 points

Answer 1

He read 1/3 of the book on the second day

He didn't finish the book in two days.

Explanation:

Lets find 3/5 of 5/9

If we said, find 3/5 of x, the answer would be 3/5x.

3/5*x = 3/5x

In the same way,
`(3)/(5) *(5)/(9) = (15)/(45) = (1)/(3)`

He read 1/3 of the book on the second day

Does 5/9 + 1/3 equal to 1?

1/3 = 3/9

5/9 + 3/9 = 8/9

He didn't finish the book in two days.

Hope this helps :)

Have a nice day!
