Based on the information provided, you have read for 3.39 hours (203.3 minutes) so far.

Total pages to read: 242 pages - 27 pages = 215 pages
Total reading time: 215 pages / 23 pages per minute = 9.35 minutes
Total break time: 215 pages / 10 pages per break * 3 minutes per break = 64.5 minutes

Therefore, the total time needed to finish reading the book would be approximately 3.39 hours (203.3 minutes) + 9.35 minutes + 64.5 minutes = 4.13 hours (247.15 minutes).
its now 5:11pm i stop at 6pm
Given that you have until 6:00 PM to read, that leaves you with 49 minutes left.

You estimated it would take around 4.13 hours (247.15 minutes) to finish reading the book, and you have already spent 203.3 minutes reading.

So, you have 247.15 minutes - 203.3 minutes = 43.85 minutes remaining to read.

Since you have only 49 minutes left until 6:00 PM, you should be able to finish reading the book before your stop time if you continue reading at the same pace.
but i stop reading when i read 10 pages for 3 minutes now its 5:12pm i stop at 6pm
Let's recalculate based on the additional information provided.

You read 23 pages per minute, and every 10 pages, you take a 3-minute break. So, you actually read for 7 minutes for every 30 pages (20 minutes reading + 10 minutes break).

Since you are on page 79 and the total book length is 242 pages with 27 pages not counting, you need to read 215 pages.

To calculate the actual reading time:
Total reading time = (215 pages / 30 pages per cycle) * 7 minutes per cycle
Total reading time = 7.17 cycles * 7 minutes per cycle
Total reading time = 50.19 minutes

Since you started at 5:10 PM and it is now 5:12 PM, you have 48 minutes until 6:00 PM.

Based on the new calculation, you should be able to finish the book within the remaining time if you stick to your reading pace.
it is 5:15pm i stop at 6pm i am at page 79 i have 136 pages left i read i read 23 pages a minute but i stop for 3 minutes every 10 pages
Thank you for the clarification. Let's calculate the time you need to finish the remaining 136 pages based on your reading speed and breaks.

First, determine the total time needed to read the 136 pages with breaks:
- Reading time for 136 pages at 23 pages per minute: 136 pages / 23 pages per minute = 5.91 minutes
- Number of 10-page intervals in 136 pages: 136 pages / 10 pages per interval = 13.6 intervals (rounded to 14 intervals)
- Total break time: 14 intervals * 3 minutes per break = 42 minutes
- Total reading time with breaks: 5.91 minutes + 42 minutes = 47.91 minutes

Since you have 45 minutes left (from 5:15 PM to 6:00 PM), you should have enough time to finish reading the remaining 136 pages before your stop time considering your reading speed and breaks.
nvm i stop at 5:20pm
If you are stopping at 5:20 PM, you have 5 minutes remaining to read.

Based on the previous calculations, you estimated that it would take approximately 47.91 minutes to finish the remaining 136 pages with your reading speed and breaks.

Since you only have 5 minutes left until 5:20 PM, you may not have enough time to finish the remaining pages. It seems like you may need an additional 42.91 minutes to complete the reading. You can continue reading after you've stopped and pick up where you left off next time.
