Answer 1

52 pages in an hour

Explanation:

78 pages read in an hour an a half

78/1.5= 52 pages which means in half and hour she read 26 pages

Answer 2

52 pages in an hour

Explanation:

First find the amount of pages that she read in 1.5 hours:

`481-403=78`

Next, you can divide by three to find the number of pages read in a half hour, and multiply that by two, to find the amount that she read in an hour:

`78*(2)/(3) =52`
