Question

Ethan writes 2/3 of a page in 5/12 of a minute. How much time does it take him to write one page

Answer 1

2/3 of a page in 5/12 of a minute

Multiply both fractions by 3/2

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

$\frac{5}{12} \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{5}{4} \times \frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{8}$

So, Ethan can read 1 page in 5/8 of a minute.
