Question

hanna read 3 pages every 12 minutes. Write an equation that shows the relationship between the number of pages she reads (p) and the number of minutes she spends reading (m)

Answer 1

p=3/8m :)

Explanation:

it's the number of pages and minutes

Answer 2

The main formula we use is Work=Rate*Time.

The Work is : reading

To find the rate:

Hanna reads 3 pages every 12 minutes, means that the reading rate of Hanna is 3 pages per 12 min, that is 3/12 (pg/min)= 1/4 (pg/min)

the time spent reading p pages is:

Time=Work/Rate= p (pages)/[1/4 (pg/min)]=4p minutes.

thus, m = 4p


Answer: m=4p
