Abstract: We studied the expectation value of the scale factor in radiation and dust quantum perfect fluid cosmology. We used Schutz variational formalism to describe perfect fluid and selected the conjugate coordinate of perfect fluid be dynamical variable. After quantization and solving the Wheeler-DeWitt equation can obtain the exact solution. By superposition of the exact solution, we obtained one wave packets and used it to compute the expectation value of the scale factor. We found that if one select different dynamical variable be the time variable in each of these two systems, the expectation value of the scale factor of these two systems can fit in with the prediction of General Relativity. Therefore we thought that the selection of reference time can be different for different quantum perfect fluid systems.
