Respuesta :
74.4/ 2 = 37.2
So, she read 37.2 pages in one hour.
37.2*5 = 186.
186 + 74.4 = 260.4.
So, in the 7 hours she read, she read 260.4 pages.
ANSWER:
Barran read 260.4 pages altogether in the time of 7 hours.
SOLUTION:
Given, that barran read 74.4 pages in two hours.
So, number of pages read by barran in one hour = [tex]\frac{74.4}{2}[/tex] = 37.2
Then, after reading for five more hours, number of pages covered in that span of five hours is given as
[tex]= Number of pages read in one hour \times number of hours[/tex]
[tex]= 37.2 \times 5 = 186[/tex]
So, Barran read 186 pages in next 5 hours
Now, total pages read = pages read in first two hours + pages read in next five hours
Total pages read = 74.4 + 186 = 260.4 pages
Hence, Barran read 260.4 pages altogether in the time of 7 hours.
