Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of pages of the book in the given hour:
To find the number of pages in 2 1/5 hours, multiply the number of pages read in 1 hour by 2 1/5 hours.
[tex]\sf \text{ Number of pages read in 2 $\dfrac{1}{5}$ hours = $\dfrac{1}{3}*2\dfrac{1}{5}$ }[/tex]
[tex]\sf = \dfrac{1}{3}*\dfrac{11}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{11}{15}[/tex]
[tex]\sf \text{Number of pages read more in 2 $\dfrac{1}{5}$ hours = $\dfrac{11}{15}-\dfrac{1}{3}$}[/tex]
[tex]\sf =\dfrac{11}{15}-\dfrac{1*5}{3*5}\\\\=\dfrac{11}{15}-\dfrac{5}{15}\\\\=\dfrac{6}{15}[/tex]
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is another way
1/3 book / hr * 2 1/5 hr =
1/3 * 11/5 = 11/15 read in 2 1/5 hr
1/3is the same as 5 /15
11/15 - 5 /15 = 6/15 = 2/5 more read in 2 1/5 hr that 1/3 hr
