Question

Zoey is reading a 100-page novel. If she averages reading 1 page in 1 minute, which is a reasonable estimate of the amount of time it will take her to read the novel? A) between 1 1/2 and 2 hours B) between 1 and 1/2 hours Eliminate C) between 2 and 3 hours D) between 0 and 1 hour

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

well since she reads 1 page per minute and there are 100 pages then that means it takes 100 minutes.

100 minutes= 1 2/3 hours which is in between 1 1/2 and 2 so the answer would be A

Answer 2

The answer to your question is: letter A

Explanation:

data

Book = 100 pages

Zoey reads 1 page per minute

Now we solve it using rule of three

1 page ------------------ 1 min

100 pages ---------------- x

x = 100x1/1 = 100 min will take Zoey to read the book

60 min ------------------ 1 hour

100 min --------------------- x

x = 100/60 = 10/6

and convert it to a mix fraction = 1 2/3 = 1 hour 40 minutes

Then, the answer is letter A
