kathy read 290 pages of her 612-page novel in 8 days. how many pages per day must she now read in order to complete the book and return it within the library’s 15-day deadline

Answer 1

To find out how many pages Kathy must read per day to complete the book, we need to know how many pages she has left to read.

Kathy has already read 290 pages, so she has 612 - 290 = <<612-290=322>>322 pages left to read.

We need to find the number of pages Kathy must read per day to complete the book in the remaining 15 days.

So she must read 322 / 15 = <<322/15=21.466666666666665>>21.47 pages per day.

Since Kathy cannot read a fraction of a page, she must read at least 22 pages per day to complete the book within the library's 15-day deadline.
