Question

Faye used a stopwatch to find that in 352 minutes, she read 88 pages.Measured in seconds, how long did it take Faye to read 1 page?

Answer 1

To find out you have to divide 352 by 88 which is four minutes. And four minutes is 240 seconds.
It took 240 seconds for faye to read 1 page

Answer 2

If you set it up as a proportion of
352 minutes over 88 pages and set it equal to x minutes over 1 page, then you'd cross multiply. You'd get 352 = 88x solve for x, you should get 4 minutes. Since you want it in seconds you do 4(60) and get 240 seconds. So it took 240 seconds for Faye to read a page!
