Problema Solution
Tehira has read 110 pages of a 290-page book. She reads 20 pages each day. How many days will it take to finish. Write and an equation.
Answer provided by our tutors
the number of pages left to read: 290 - 110 = 180 pages
the rate of Tehira's reading: 20 pages per day
let t = the number of days needed to finish the book
20*t = 180 divide both sides by 20
t = 180/20
t = 9 days
Tehira will need 9 days to finish the book.
