Question

Ravi reads 53 pages of a book in one day and the remaining 29 pages the next day. How many pages did the books contain ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

After reading 3/8 of the book, the remaining fraction 1 - 3/8 = 5/8

The boy then reads 4/5 of 5/8 = 4/5 x 5/8 = 1/2

Total fraction read = 3/8 + 1/2 = 7/8

The unread fraction = 1 - 7/8 = 1/8 This is equivalent to 30 pages

∴ The book has 30 ÷ 1/8 = 240 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2
