and 10 at x is equal to 6/7 part of the book

so form and equation on the basis of the above statement.

8x = 6/7

x = 3/28

Given :   James read an equal number of pages of this book each each night for 8 nights to prepare for his upcoming exam. During this time, he has read a total of 6/7 of the book.  

To find : What fraction of the book did he read each night

Solution:

Book read by James in 8 nights   = 6/7

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
