Answer: 69 pages
Work Shown:
46 pages = 2 hours
23 pages = 1 hour .... divide both sides by 2
69 pages = 3 hours ... multiply both sides by 3
Another way to find the answer is to solve the equation below for x
46/2 = x/3
Number of pages read in 2 hours = 46
So, number of pages read in 1 hour = 46/2 = 23
So, number of pages read in 3 hours
= 23 × 3
= 69
So, I can read 69 pages in 3 hours.
