<human>:  Regina wrote 9 novels last year. If this is 3 quarters of the number of novels she has written this year, how many novels has she written this year?
<bot>: How many novels did Regina write last year? ** Number of novels she wrote last year = (3/4)*number of novels she wrote this year
How many novels did Regina write last year? ** 9 = (3/4)*number of novels she wrote this year
How many novels has Regina written this year? ** Multiplying both sides by 4/3 gives the number of novels she has written this year = (4/3)*9 = <<4/3*9=12>>12 novels
