Answer 2

Explanation:

Aileen can read 1.5 pages for every page your friend can read.

Aileen's mom is very excited and she said to Aileen : "So if your friend read 20 pages you can read 25 the same time period!"

Aileen can read 1.5 times faster than your friend.

when your friend read 20 pages Aileen can read = 20 × 1.5

= 30 pages

So Aileen's mom is wrong, Aileen can read 30 pages at the same time period.
