Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Robert is writing a paper for language arts class.

He can write $\frac{2}{3}$ of a page in  $\frac{1}{2}$ hour.

He can write in one hour = $\frac{\frac{2}{3} }{\frac{1}{2}}$

                                         =  $\frac{2}{3}$ ×  $\frac{2}{1}$

                                        =  $\frac{4}{3}$

                                        =  $1\frac{1}{3}$ page/hour

Robert is writing  $1\frac{1}{3}$ page per hour

Answer 2

He is writing at 4/3 pages per hour or 1 1/3 pages/hr.
