Answer 2

Given,

A book consists of 216 pages.

To Find,

During last week Vikash read 3/4 of the book. How many pages did he read?

Solution,

We can solve the question as follows:

It is given that a book consists of 216 pages. Vikash reads 3/4 of the book. We have to find the number of pages read by him.

$Number\: of\: pages\: in\: the\: book = 216$

$Amount\: of\: book\: read\: by\: Vikash = \frac{3}{4}$

Vikash reads 3/4 of the total pages of the book which means he read 3/4 of 216.

Therefore,

$Pages\: read\: by\: Vikash = \frac{3}{4}\: of\: 216$

                                   $= \frac{3}{4} * 216$

                                   $= 3*54$

                                   $= 162$

Hence, he read 162 pages of the book.
