Solve:-

Patrick:-
20 pgs = 4 hrs

Todd:-
25 pgs = 5 hrs

Divide:-

Patrick:-

20 ÷ 4 = 5
5 pgs per hr

Todd:-

25 ÷ 5 = 5
5 pgs oer hr

Yes, Both boys read at the same rate, 5 pgs per hr

All you need to do is find the rate that each boy read and compare them.

Patrick
20 pages/4 hours
=5 pages/hour

Todd
25 pages/5 hours
=5 pages/hour

Yes both boys read at the same rate (5 pages/hour)
