Matthew has 63 pages to read in 2-5 days. He wants to read the same whole number of pages each day and the greatest number of pages in the fewest days possible. What is the best number of days for Matthew’s reading plan?

3 days. You can’t do two because that’s not a whole number. However 63 divided by 3 is 21 which is his best plan for the most pages in the fewest days.
