Answer 1

Answer:

3/28

Book read by James in 1 night  = (6/7) / 8

=>  Book read by James in 1 night  = 6/(7 * 8)

=> Book read by James in 1 night  = 6/56

=> Book read by James in 1 night  = 2 * 3/(2 * 28)

=>  Book read by James in 1 night  = 3/28

3/28  fraction of the book   he read each night
