Answer 1

$\huge\boxed{\fcolorbox{cyan}{Orange}{HELLO MATE}}$

$\huge\underline\mathfrak\red{answer}$

$\huge\boxed{\fcolorbox{cyan}{Green}{ Number of pages in the book = 360}}$

$\huge\boxed{\fcolorbox{cyan}{Yellow}{SOLUTION:}}$

Let the total number of pages in the book be x .

Then ,

No. of pages read on Monday = 30% of x

No. of pages read on Tuesday = 50% of x

No. of pages left to be read = 72

Now,

=> Total no. of pages in the book = No. of pages read on Monday + No. of pages read on Tuesday + No. of pages lest to be read .

=> x = (30% of x) + (50% of x) + 72

=> x = (30/100)•x + (50/100)•x + 72

=> x = (3/10)•x + (5/10)•x + 72

=> x = 3x/10 + 5x/10 + 72

=> x = (3x + 5x)/10 + 72

=> x = 8x/10 + 72

=> x - 8x/10 = 72

=> (10x - 8x)/10 = 72

=> 2x/10 = 72

=> x/5 = 72

=> x = 72•5

=> x = 360

Hence,

The total number of pages in the book is 360 .

Answer 2

There are 625 pages of the book are to be read in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Percentage of pages read on Monday = 16%

Percentage of pages read on Tuesday = 32%

So, Remaining left percentage of pages is given by

$100-(16+32)\\\\=100-48\\\\=52\%$

Let the total number of pages are left to be read be 'x'.

According to question, we get that

$0.52x=325\\\\x=\dfrac{325}{0.52}\\\\x=625$

Hence, there are 625 pages of the book are to be read in total.
