Answer 1

Explanation:

B, C, and D

By doing 5÷8 = .625 you know that Hang can read .625 of a page per minute.

You can do this for the rest of the people finding that Kira reads .5 page per minute which is a slower/ smaller ratio, Joe rate is .66, Quon's ratio is .71 and Lulus rate is .76, the only rate that is smaller than Hangs is Kira,s, leaving you with Joe, Quon, and Lulu to be your answer
