Hi there!

In order to answer your question, you'll need to use the cross product method:

45 pages → 2 hours

X pages → 3 hours


(45 × 3) ÷ 2 = X pages

135 ÷ 2 = X pages

67.5 = X pages


Your answer is : You can read 67 and a half pages in 3 hours.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Answer: The required number of pages is 67.5.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that we can read 45 pages of our new book in 2 hours.

We are to find the number of pages that we can read in 3 hours.

We will be using the UNITARY method to solve the given problem.

Number of pages that can be read in 2 hours = 45.

So, number of pages that can be read in 1 hour is


(45)/(2).

Therefore, the number of pages that can be read in 3 hours is given by


(45)/(2)*3=22.5*3=67.5.

Thus, the required number of pages is 67.5.
