After 20 minutes Clint is on page = 151

After 45 minutes Clint is on page = 181

Time slot =
45-20=25 minutes

Difference in pages in 25 minutes =
181-151=30 pages.

Lets suppose Clint is reading each page at same pace.

So , In 25 minutes, he can read = 30 pages

In 1 minute he can read =
(30)/(25)=1.2 pages

Initial time is 20 minutes, so he can read the number of pages in 20 minutes =
20*1.2=24

So, number of pages Clint read prior to study hall were =


151-24=127 pages.
