Question

Christian reads 1/4 book every 2/3 week. How many books does Christian read per week?

Answer 1

(1/4) / (2/3) = x / 1...1/4 book to 2/3 week = x books to 1 week
cross multiply because this is a proportion
2/3x = 1/4
x = 1/4 * 3/2
x = 3/8 per week

Answer 2

First you must convert the denominator to an equal number by finding a same multiple, in this case it is 12. So the factions convert to 3/12 and 8/12. Now add the two, resulting in 11/12. So the answer is 11/12
