Answer 2

Answer:

He writes $\frac{1}{18}$ manuscripts in 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let John writes x manuscripts in 1 hour,

So, the number of manuscripts he writes in 12 hours = 12x

According to the question,

$12x=\frac{2}{3}$

$x=\frac{2}{36}$

$\implies x=\frac{1}{18}$

Hence, he writes $\frac{1}{18}$ manuscripts in 1 hour.
