Ответ:
2/3 becomes 14/21, because 3 x 7 = 21, and 2 x 7 = 14
1 3/7 becomes 1 9/21, because 7 x 3 = 21, and 3 x 3 = 9
Now, to make the rest of it a bit easier, let's turn the fractions into decimals.
14/21 is 0.66
1 9/21 is 1.43
We can then turn this into a ratio, and then write an equation to solve for how many pages Charles reads per minute.
1.43 pages per 0.66 minutes, or 1.43/0.66
The equation to solve for this would then be
where p is the number of pages.
To solve for p, we simply cross multiply and divide.
1.43 x 1 = 0.66 x p
1.43 = 0.66 x p
1.43 ÷ 0.66 = p
p = 2.17
Charles reads 2.17 pages per minute.
