Question

Linda reads 48 pages of her book which represents 40%of her book how many pages does this book have

Answer 1

Let's set up an equation for this:

Let
`p` represent the number of pages;

So to get
`p` by itself, we need to divide by .4!


`p=120`

So there are 120 total pages in their book.

Answer 2

120 pages are in the book
