Please explain how to solve this:

On Monday, it took Helen 3 hours to do a page of science homework exercises. The next day she did the same number of exercises in 2 hours. If her average rate on Monday was \( p \) exercises per hour, what was her average rate the next day, in terms of \( p \)?

Answer (1)

I think it is 1.5×p. Because for example: If there were 99 science problems, then... 99÷3=33 99÷2=49.5 49.5÷33=1.5 33=p The #of science problems=p×1.5
