Question

Emily completed reading 24/3 books in 32/4 days. Find the number of books she would have completed in one day.
4 books per day
3 books per day
2 books per day
1 book per day

Answer 1

To find out how many books Emily completed in one day, we first need to simplify the fractions given.

1. Simplify the number of books:
\[
\frac{24}{3} = 8 \text{ books}
\]

2. Simplify the number of days:
\[
\frac{32}{4} = 8 \text{ days}
\]

Now, we need to find the number of books per day:
\[
\text{Books per day} = \frac{\text{Total books}}{\text{Total days}} = \frac{8 \text{ books}}{8 \text{ days}} = 1 \text{ book per day}
\]

Thus, the number of books Emily would have completed in one day is:
\[
\boxed{1 \text{ book per day}}
\]
