Question

Albert wrote a total of 5 pages of his essay in 2 hours. How many hours will Albert need to complete a 12 page paper?

Answer 1

Answer:

4 hours, 48 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

we can divide 12 as 10 and 2.

if it takes 2 hours to write 5 pages,

it takes 4 hours to write 10 pages.....

we have 2 pages left,

for finding 1 page we should divide 120 ( as 2 hours ) into 5.

120/5 is 48...

so it takes 4 hours 48 mins to write 12 pages....
