This is the complete question below;

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given, The ratio of pages read to minutes for Hang as 5 : 8. Which means 5/8= 0.625, then we can say he read 0.625 of a page per minute.

Let us do this for each of the given options;

A. Kira:2 pages read every 4 minutes

B. Joe:6 pages read every 9 minute

Then Joe's rate = 0.667page per minute.

Quon's rate = 5/7 = 0.7143page per minute.

D. Lulu:10 pages read every 13 minutes

Lulu's rate= 10/13= 0.76923page per minute.

Quon( 0.7143page per minute)

and Lulu (0.76923page per minute.)
