Answer 1

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1). Take out 7/12 part of 60 :-

$\frac{7}{12} \times 60 = 35$

so, there are total 35 pages of Advertising.

Step 2). Take out 4/15 part of 60 :-

$\frac{4}{15} \times 60 = 16$

so, there are total 16 pages of photographs.

Step 3). Let's assume the number of pages that have articles and stories be x

according to the question :-

35 + 16 + x = 60

51 + x = 60

x = 60-51

x = 9

so, The number of pages that have articles and stories are 9 pages. ANS!
