Question

Rakesh reads 3/8 part of a book on the first day and 4/5 part of the baby book read on the second day. Now there are 30 pages left in the book. What is the total number of pages in the book?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let Total Pages = X.

First Day Read = 3/8 * X

Second Day Read,

(X - 3X/8) * 4/5 = X/2

Remaining = 30 Pages.

Total Pages = First day Read + Second Day Read + remaining Pages

X = 3X/8 + X/2 + 30

X - 3X/8 - X/2 = 30

(8X - 3X - 4X)/8 = 30

X = 30 * 8

X = 240.

Total Page = 240.
