Question

hallie has 10 times as many pages to read for her homework assignment as janet, altogether , they have to read 264 pages. how many pages does each girl have to read

Answer 1

Let
`j` be the number of pages Janet has to read.
so Hallie has
`10j` pages to read.
Altogether, they must read
`10j + j` pages, which is
`11j`. So this means that
`11j` must be equal to
`264`.
If you divide both bits by
`11`, you get
`j = (264)/(11) = 24`.
So, Janet has to read
`j` pages, which is
`24`, and Hallie has to read
`10j` pages, which is
`240`.
