Question

Sam is reading a book. He finishes reading 6 pages of the book in 18 minutes. How many pages would Sam have finished reading in 54 minutes?

Answer 1

We know that Sam can read 6 pages in 18 minutes. So in 1 minute, Sam can read 6/18 = 1/3 of a page
Therefore, in 54 minutes, Sam can read 54/1 x 1/3 = <<54/1*1/3=18>>18 pages. Answer: \boxed{18}.
