Reemu read 1/5 pages of a book . If she read further 40 pages, she would have read 7/10 pages of the book . How many pages are left to read?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total no. of pages = x

x/5 +40 = 7x/10

7x-2x/10 = 40

5x/10 = 40

x/2 = 40

x = 80

remaining pages

= x-7x/10

=3x/10

=3*80/10

=24 pages
