So far, he spent 3 hours reading the first 165 pages. If Kamal continues to read at the same rate, how many more minutes will he need to finish the 198-page book?

Answer:

36 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

You take 165/3= 55 pages per hour.

Take 198-165 = 33 pages left of the book

Take 33/55 = .6 hrs to finish the book.

Take 60(minutes in an hour)*.6= 36 minutes
