Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the book is of 240 pages.

Ananth reads 40 pages per hour and Bharath reads 60 pages per hour.

Number of pages Ananth will complete at the end of each hour −40,80,120,160,200,240.

Number of pages Bharath will complete at the end of each hour −60,120,180,240.

At the end of 3rd hour, Bharath is left with 60 pages and Ananth is left with 120 pages.

So, the answer is 3 hours.
