Question

If you can read 20 pages in 45 minutes, how many pages can you read in 18 minutes

Answer 1

`8` pages

Explanation:

First, we can find the reading speed per minute before finding how many pages can be read in 18 minutes.

`s=20pages/45minute` (
`s` refers to reading speed)

`s = (4)/(9)pages/minute` (divide both sides by
`45`)

Pages read in 18 minutes
`= (4)/(9)*18`

`=8` pages

Hope this helps :)
