Answer: A, C, D

Explanation:

A is correct because Audrey reads 40 pages a day, and David reads 20. When you divide 40 by 20, you get 2. This means that 2 times 20 would be 40, and anything multiplied by 2 is "twice".

40 ÷ 20 = 2

2 × 20 = 40

B is not correct because after 6 days, Audrey reads 240 pages, and David reads only 120. We can figure this out by multiplying the pages read by 6.

Audrey: 40 × 6 = 240

David: 20 × 6 = 120

C is correct because when you subtract 20 from 40, you get 20. Since Audrey reads 40 pages a day and David reads 20, you can use this equation: 40-20 to figure the answer out. Audrey reads 20 more pages every day.


40-20=20

D is correct because after 2 days, Audrey will have read 80 pages, and David will have read 40 pages. When you subtract 40 from 80, you get 40 pages.

40 × 2 = 80

20 × 2 = 40

80 - 40 = 40

E is not correct because, after 3 days, Audrey will have read 120 pages, and David will have read 60 pages. One-third of 120 is 40, not 60. Three times 60 would be 180, not 120. So, This answer is incorrect.
