Hey there! :)

You have to find 10% of 450 and add it to 450 to get the amount he will read the next month. Then, add that with 450 to get the total

10% = 0.1

0.1 × 450 = 45

450 + 45 = 495

He will read 495 next month

This month + next month = 495 + 450

495 + 450 = 945

He will read 945 minutes in the next 2 months
