Beth read a total of 12 books over 7 months.

givi [52]

She has been with her book club for 49 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Books read = 12 books

Time period = 7 months

Therefore,

12 books = 7 months

1 book = $\frac{7}{12}\ months$

Books read so far = 84 books

Total time period = x

84 books = x months

1 book = $\frac{x}{84}\ months$

Using both unit rates;

$\frac{x}{84}=\frac{7}{12}\\x=\frac{7}{12}*84\\x=\frac{588}{12}\\x=49\ months$

She has been with her book club for 49 months.
