Answer:

336/13 books in 48 months

Explanation:

14 books : 26 months

first, find how many books he reads in one month (by dividing the given rate by the number of months)

14 books : 26 months

/26 /26

7/13 books : 1 month

now multiply by the number of months that this problem requires

7/13 books : 1 month

*48 *48

336/13 books : 48 months
