Answer 2

Answer:

Sean reads 0.47 pages per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sean reads $1\frac{1}{2}$ pages in $3\frac{1}{3}$ minutes.

First we convert these fractions to decimal form.

$1\frac{1}{2}$  pages = 1.5 pages

$3\frac{1}{3}$ minutes = 3.20 minutes

Sean reads in 3.20 minutes = 1.5 pages

Sean reads in 1 minute = $\frac{1.5}{3.20}$ = 0.46875 ≈ 0.47 pages

Sean reads 0.47 pages per minute.
