Final answer:
Ajay reads 11.5 pages in 2/5 of an hour, which equates to a rate of 28.75 pages per hour, so he would read 28.75 pages if he continues at the same pace for one full hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student is asking about the rate of reading pages over time. Given that Ajay read 11 and one half pages in 2/5 of an hour, we need to find out how many pages he would read in one full hour if he continues at the same pace. First, we calculate the rate of reading per hour by dividing the number of pages read by the fraction of the hour spent reading. Once we have the rate, we can multiply it by one to find the total number of pages read in one hour.
Let's calculate the rate per hour:
Rate = ∅11.5 pages / (2/5) hour = (11.5 * 5/2) pages/hour = 28.75 pages/hour
Therefore, if he continues to read at the same rate, Ajay will read 28.75 pages in one hour.
