If Jada can read 3/5 of a book in 1/4 of an hour, it will take her 5/12 of an hour to read one whole book
Time taken to read 3/5 of the book = 1/4 hours
To get the time taken to read 1 book, we will divide 1/4 hours by 3/5
Time taken to read 1 book = [tex]\frac{1}{4}\div \frac{3}{5}[/tex]
The division sign changes to multiplication and 3/5 is changed to its reciprocal (5/3)
Time taken to read 1 book = [tex]\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{5}{3}[/tex]
Time taken to read 1 book = [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]
