Question

Soumya has read 0.15 part of novel. If she reads 0.171 of the book every day, how many more days
does she need to complete the book?




step by step please​

Answer 1

Let us consider that the total no. of pages in the book as 1,

So if Soumya has read 0.15 of the book, then total no. of pages left will be (1 - 0.15) = 0.85 pages.

If Vasanti reads 0.171 pages per day, then to read 0.85 pages she will take = 0.85/0.171 = 4.9 days.
