Question

Lucas read 30% of his book containing 480 pages. What page is he going to read next? How many pages has he read so far?

Answer 1

First, calculate the number of page read by Lucas. Calculate the 30% of 480, as follow:

(30/100)(480) = 144

Next, subtract the previous result to 480:

480 - 144 = 336

Hence, Lucas is going to read 336 pages
