The answer is .45 or 9/20 pages per minute.

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.
