2/3 of 9/10
multiply 2/3 by 9/10, then reduce/simplify
2/3 * 9/10= 18/30, divide by 2
9/15, so Omarion read 9/15 of the book.

Answer: The required fraction of the book that Omarion trad over the weekend is
(3)/(5).

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Omarion has
(9)/(10) of pages in a book remaining to read for school and he reads
(2)/(3) of the remaining pages over the weekend.

We are to find the fraction of the book that Omarion trad over the weekend.

The fraction of the book trad over the weekend

= the fraction of the pages read over the weekend multiplied by the fraction of the book that is remaining to be read.

Therefore, the fraction of the book that Omarion trad over the weekend is given by


f=(2)/(3)*(9)/(10)=(3)/(5).

Thus, the required fraction of the book that Omarion trad over the weekend is
(3)/(5).
