Carissa can eat 2 pints of ice cream in 6 days, so she eats 2/6 = 1/3 pint per day.
To eat 10 pints of ice cream, it will take Carissa 10/(1/3) = 30 days.

Therefore, it will take Carissa 30 days to eat 10 pints of ice cream.
Lisa can read 30 pages in 45 minutes. At the same rate, how many pages can she read in 60 minutes
If Lisa can read 30 pages in 45 minutes, she reads at a rate of 30/45 = 2/3 pages per minute.
To find out how many pages she can read in 60 minutes, we multiply her reading rate by 60 minutes:
(2/3) * 60 = 40

Therefore, Lisa can read 40 pages in 60 minutes.
