5 1/4 if you convert it the fraction to decimal it will be 5.25.
5.25*8=42.
Henry wrote 42 pages in 8 hours

Answer 2

Number of pages written in 8 hours = 42 pages

Explanation:

Henry can write 5 1/4 pages of his novel in hours.

`\texttt{Number of pages written in 1 hour = }5(1)/(4)=(5* 4+1)/(4)=(21)/(4)`

We need to find how many pages can Henry write in 8 hours

Time of writing = 8 hours.

`\texttt{Total number of pages written in 8 hours = }8* (21)/(4)=42\texttt{ pages}`

Number of pages written in 8 hours = 42 pages
