Q. Alice was reading a book. She read 30 pages in an hour. If she has read for 5 hours and has 90 pages left, how many pages are in the book?
A. 240 Pages
Solution:
Let’s denote the total number of pages in the book as P.
Alice reads 30 pages per hour.
In 5 hours, she reads: 30 pages/hour * 5 hours = 150 pages.
If she has 90 pages left, the total pages she has read and left would be: 150 pages + 90 pages = 240 pages.
Therefore, the total number of pages in the book is 240 pages.
Q. Tom started writing his novel at age 20. He completed it in 4 years. If he is 28 now, how many years ago did he finish writing his novel?
A. 4 years
Solution:
Tom completed his novel in 4 years.
If he started at age 20 and finished in 4 years, he was: 20 + 4 = 24 years old when he finished.
Now, Tom is 28 years old.
The number of years since he finished his novel is: 28 – 24 = 4 years.
Therefore, Tom finished writing his novel 4 years ago.
Q. Emma reads 10 pages of her favorite storybook every night. After reading for 15 nights, she has 75 pages left. How many pages were in the storybook initially?
A. 225 pages
Solution:
Emma reads 10 pages every night.
In 15 nights, she reads: 10 pages/night * 15 nights = 150 pages.
If she has 75 pages left, the total pages read and left would be: 150 pages + 75 pages = 225 pages.
Therefore, the initial number of pages in the storybook is 225 pages.
Q. A storybook has 120 chapters. If Mary reads 3 chapters a day, how many days will it take her to finish the book if she has already read 18 chapters?
A. 34 Days
Solution:
Total chapters in the storybook: 120 chapters.
Chapters already read by Mary: 18 chapters.
Chapters left to read: 120 – 18 = 102 chapters.
Mary reads 3 chapters a day.
Days needed to finish the book: 102 chapters / 3 chapters/day = 34 days.
Therefore, it will take Mary 34 days to finish the book.

Harry’s sister reads 20 pages a day.
Harry reads 5 pages more than his sister, so he reads: 20 + 5 = 25 pages a day.
Total pages read by Harry: 300 pages.
Days Harry has been reading: 300 pages / 25 pages/day = 12 days.
