Answer:

16 Pages per day.

Explanation:

Total Pages of Book = 192

Number of days remaining to earn prize for completing the book = 12

Let x be the nomber of pages which she should read daily to fininsh book in 12 days; Hence

x = 192 / 12

x = 16

So if Stella will read 16 pages per day she will complete the book in 12 days and can earn the prize from media center.
