3/5=x/4
x=20/3

If we assume that triangle EGH is similar to triangle EFG than side EG in the smaller triangle corresponds to side EF in the larger triangle and also side GH (x) corresponds yo side GF so 3/5=x/4 and then we cros multiply
3x=4*5
3x=20

Okay first you need to convert 0.2 to a percentage which would be 20% then 20% + 20% = 40% then it says he read 50%, 50% of 36 means that you have to multiply 36 two times to get, 72 then you do 72 * 40% = 28.8 = 29 + 72 = 101 pages in all then 101- 40%= 60.6 is how many pages were read on Monday and Tuesday.
