Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are simply going to start with reverse algebra;
if after reading 3/4 of the remainder, there are 14pages left
this means 14pages is equal to 1/4 of the remainder,
thus; if 1/4=14
3/4=42pages. which is the number of the remaining pages
So lets take the total number of pages as x
tyler read 2/15 of it on monday= 2x/15
he read 1/3 of it on tuesday=x/3
he read 2/9 of it on wednesday=2x/9
after subtracting the above value the remainder is 42pages
x-(2x/15+x/3+2x/9)=42pages
after evaluating the lcm
x-(31x/45)=42pages
evaluating the lcm once again
14x/45 = 42pages
multiplying both sides by 45 and dividing by 14
1890/14=135pages
