Mrs. Ahlfeld reads 2/3 of her free time reading her book called I am the World’s Greatest. If she has 60 minutes of free time, how much time does she spend reading?

Answer:

40

Explanation:

Since the fraction is 2/3, and we want to know how much time she spent reading out of 60, you can take 20 times 3 and it equals 60. we only want two thirds of that, so we count by 20 twice, and we get 40
