To find out how many pages Brian can read in 3.5 hours, we can use the ratio:

Pages read / Hours = Pages per hour

Since Brian can read 80 pages in 2 hours, we have:

80 pages / 2 hours = 40 pages per hour

To find how many pages he can read in 3.5 hours, we multiply the rate (40 pages per hour) by the number of hours (3.5):

40 pages/hour * 3.5 hours = 140 pages

Therefore, Brian can read 140 pages in 3.5 hours.
