Hello there!

First, we need to admit that math is a hard subject. So, how do we handle hard stuff? We find an easy way. Right?

Well same goes here. They give the fractions to drive us crazy. Let's find the easiest way...

The easiest way is to turn them into decimals.
1 3/7 = 1.42 which is the amount of pages he reads
2/3 = 0.67 minute.

The are asking us how many pages does he reads per minute.

So we gonna say:
Charlie reads 1.42 pages ......> 0.67
Charlie reads x pages.............> 1minute

Cross multiply

0.67 * x = 1 * 1.42
0.67x = 1.42
x = 1.42/0.67
x = 2.11

So, Charlie reads 2.11 pages in 1 minute.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have questions about the answer.

Thanks!

Why is the grid in Example 1 a good way to represent a percent?

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

percent means per hundred

Between the 100 squares, 60 of them are shaded

so you do 60/100

it's kind of like correcting tests, you have 100 questions, you got 80 of them right so its going to be 80/100

when you calculate percentage, you do the fraction x 100

so it's 60/100 = 0.6 x100 = 60%

hope that answers your question
