  • The first section has 16 pages.
  • Advertisements take up 3 3/8 of the pages.

First, we need to the number of pages dedicated to advertisements.

Let's transform the mixed number into a fraction

[tex]3\frac{3}{8}=\frac{27}{8}[/tex]

Now, let's multiply this fraction with the number of pages

[tex]\frac{27}{8} \times 16= 54[/tex]

That is, there are 54 pages dedicated to advertisements.

Pages without advertisements are 5/8, which is

[tex]\frac{5}{8} \times 16=5(2)=10[/tex]
