Question

26. Maria reads 40 pages of her novel in 4 hours At that rate, how many pages would she read in 5 hours? ​

Answer 1

50 pages

Explanation:

You would have to cross multiply, 40/4 = x/5.

Then, you would get 200 = 4x.

Finally, you would have to divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself and you would get your final answer, x = 50. ( Where x equals the pages read in hour 5.)

Hope this helped you out!!
