Trina is reading a 360 page book. She reads the first 60 pages in 6 days.

If Trina continues to read at the same rate, how long will it take her to finish the book?

Answer: It will take 36 days.

Step-by-step explanation: First, to make this a bit easier, you can divide 60 by 6, to figure out how many pages she reads a day, The answer to that is 10. Then, if you take the whole book, 360 pages, and divide it by 10. The answer is 36. This is the number of days it would take for her to read the whole book at the same rate.
