Suzanne red 17 pages today that is 8 pages fewer than 1/3 of the pages she read yesterday how many pages did she read yesterday?

Answer 1

Let x represent the number of pages Suzanne read yesterday.
The number of pages she read today is (1/3)x - 8 = 17.
Multiplying both sides of the equation by 3, we get x - 24 = 51.
Adding 24 to both sides, we get x = 75.
Suzanne read 75 pages yesterday. Answer: \boxed{75}.
