Answer 2

The printer will print 100 pages in 15 minutes.

Explanation:

1. Set up a proportion

`(40 pages)/(6 minutes) =(xpages)/(15minutes)`

2. Cross-multiply the proportion

`40*15=600\\6* x =6x`

3. Set up the equation

`6x=600`

4. Solve for x

`6x=600`

Divide both sides by 6

`x=100`

Therefore, the printer will print 100 pages in 15 minutes.
