Question

Please help me with number 3. Show all work!

Amy and Mai have to read Bud, Not Buddy for a class. Amy reads 20 pages in 2 days. Mai reads 35 pages in 3 days. Who reads at a faster rate?

Answer 1

Well if you divide 29 by 2 you get 10. She reads 10 pages per day. If you divide 35 by 3. You get 11 / 12. Therefore Mai reads faster

Answer 2

All you have to do is divide the number of days by the number of pages. So the first one would be ten pages per day, and the other would be about 11 pages per day so that means Mai reads at a faster rate.
