Hallie has 10 times as many pages to read for her homework assignment as janet. altogether they have to read 264 pages. how many pages does each girl have to read

Number of pages which need to be read by Jane = 24

Number of pages which need to be read by Hallie = 240

Solution:

Given that Hallie has 10 times as many pages to read for her homework assignment as Janet.

Let number of pages which need to be read by Jane = x  

So number of pages which need to be read by Hallie =10 x  

Also given altogether they have to read 264 pages . So we get

10 x + x = 264

11x = 264

x = = 24  

Number of pages which need to be read by Jane = x = 24

Number of pages which need to be read by Hallie = 10x = 10 24 = 240

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
