Answer 1

Answer:

98 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Part of book read = 3/7

So,

Remaining part to be read = 1 - 3/7 = 4/7

Given,

4/7 part of the book contains 56 pages

4/7 -------- 56 pages

1 full part ---------- 56 × 7/4 = 98 (Multiplying both sides by 7/4)

So,

Total book contains 56 ×7/4 = 98 pages

Answer 2

Answer:

total there are 98 pages in that book

Step-by-step explanation:

let total no. of pages be x

he readed 3/7 pages of total=3x/7

56 pages are still left to read

56+3x/7=x

56=x-3x/7

56=7x-3x/7

56=4x/7

56*7=4x

392=4x

392/4=x

x=98
