Answer 1

Kendall has been 9 months with her book club.

Explanation:

Given:

Kendall read a total of 20 books over 4 months. If Kendall has read 45 books so far.

Now, to find the months she has been with her book club.

So, to solve using the unit rates:

If, Kendall read 20 books over =
`4\ months.`

Then, she read 1 book over =
`(4)/(20) \ months.`

Thus. Kendall has read 45 books over =
`(4)/(20)* 45`

`=0.2* 45\\\\=9\ months.`

Therefore, Kendall has been 9 months with her book club.
