Mr.Moore will read 67 pages on Sunday. The pattern will continue each day by 12. So on Friday he will have 53 pages read. On Saturday he will have 60 Pages read. And on Sunday he will have 67 pages read. :)

Answer:

Mr. Moore read 67 pages on Sunday.

Explanation:

In this problem, we have to build a sequence, which initial terms are:


25, 32, 39, 46,...

As you can observe, the sequence is increasing by difference of 7. Now, we can use that difference to find the number of pages on Sunday:

Monday: 25

Tuesday: 32

Wednesday: 39

Thursday: 46

Friday: 53

Saturday: 60

Sunday: 67

Therefore, Mr. Moore read 67 pages on Sunday.
