Answer 1

Answer:

40 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

let total no of pages be x

he reads on first day=3x/5

he reads on second day=3x*1/5*4=3x/20

x=he reads on first day+he reads on second day +remaining pages

x=(3x/5)+(3x/20)+10

after simplifying,

20x=15x+200

20x-15x=200

5x=200

x=200/5

x=40

Total no of pages=40
