Answer:

Taylor would need 4 hours to read the whole novel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

According to the conditions of the problem, Taylor reads 1/6 of a novel in 2/3 of an hour.

To read the entire novel he would need six times that time.

Thus, to read the whole novel, Taylor would need 6*2/3 = 12/3= 4 hours

Taylor would need 4 hours
