To find out how many books Jada reads in a week, we need to know the number of books Maria reads in a week. According to the given information, Maria reads 1/5 of a book in a week.

To find out how many books Jada reads, we can multiply the number of books Maria reads by 8, since Jada reads 8 times as many books as Maria.

Let's calculate:

Books Maria reads in a week = 1/5 book
Books Jada reads in a week = 8 * (Books Maria reads in a week)

Plugging in the value, we get:

Books Jada reads in a week = 8 * (1/5)
= 8/5

So, Jada reads 8/5 books in a week, which is equal to 1 and 3/5 books in simplest form.
