Question

Brad reads his favorite book for 1 1/4 hours each day. If he has read the book for 22 1/2 hours so far, how many days has he read it? Show how you know.

Answer 1

18 days

Explanation:

1 1/4 hours each day and 22 1/2 hours so far, so we divide 22 1/2 by 1 1/4

22 1/2÷ 1 1/4

=45 ÷ 5

2 ÷4

= 45 ×4

2 ×5

= 9×2

= 18
