Answer 1

28x + 54 = 379 is what I came up with, though it would help to see the choises you have to select from if there are any.

Explanation:

28 = the pages she reads in 1 hours.

x = how many hours it would take to finish the book.

54 = the amount of pages she's already read.

379 = the full amount of pages she needs to read to finish the book.
