Here is your solution Bro , hope it helped

Answer 2

The total number of pages is 360

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of pages

Puja read book book in 1 day = $\frac{3}{4}x$

Remaining pages = $x-\frac{3}{4}x=\frac{1}{4}x$

She completes 1/2 of the remaining book on nxt day i.e. $\frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{4}x)=\frac{1}{8}x$

She read total pages =$\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{1}{8}x=\frac{7}{8}x$

We are given that She has read 315 pages .

So, $\frac{7}{8}x=315\\x=\frac{315 \times 8}{7}\\x=360$

Hence The total number of pages is 360
