Question

Madison reads 24 pages of her book each day. She has read for 9 days & is exactly halfway through reading her book. What is the total number of pages in Madison’s book?

Answer 1

So 24 pages per day. Meaning in 9 days she would read
`24*9=216`, and if that is half of the pages in the book then the total must be
`216*2=432` pages.

Answer 2

432 pages.

Explanation:

We know Madison reads 24pgs/ per day. She reads for nine days, so she reads 24*9 pages, or 216.

We know also that this is halfway through her book, so 2*216= the whole book, so the book has 432 pages
