Question

2.. Kerri took 2 and 1/2 hours to read a 460 page book. At this rate, how long will it take her to read a 1250 page book? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

reading_rate:  2.5R = 1250

R = 1250/2.5 = 500 pages/hr or ( 1 hr)/(500 pages)

Solve for hr?

=( 1 hr)/(500 pages)   * 1250 pages    

now, cancel out pages and we are left with hours

= 1250/500 hours

=  2.5 hours
