Question

Vivian has a 550 page book on folk tales . If she reads 9 pages everyday before falling asleep . how many days will it take her to finish the book​

Answer 1

62 days

Explanation:

Given that she reads 9 pages everyday before falling asleep. Then, on day one, she would read 9m pages.

On day 2, she would read another 9 pages, making 18 pages after 2 days. If she will finish the book in x days then

x = 550/9

=61 1/9 days

Converting the 1/9 into a day then, she will finish the book in 62 days, reading just a page on the 62nd day.
