Answer:
Let p represent the # of pages in the book. Then, Nora has already read 0.30p pages and has 0.70p pages left to read.
If she reads 25% pages/night, that means reading 0.25(0.70)p pages per night, or 17.5 pages/night. If 28% p/n, that means 0.28(0.70)p pages/night, or 19.6p pages/night.
How many nights will it take Nora to finish the book if she reads 25% of 7/10 of the book per night? Without any calculations, we can answer this by "4 nights, since she reads 1/4 of the unread portion of the book per night."
If she reads 28% of 7/10 of the book per night, that will require fewer nights:
First night: 28%
Second night: 28%
Third night: 28%
Total: 3(28%) = 84%
This leaves 16% to read on the final night.
This is one interpretation of what I think is a poorly worded question.
The author of this question might have meant reading 25% of the remaining unread pages per night, which leads to a different answer.

Answer:23
Step-by-step explanation:
-25 15/19 + 9/1
get a common denominator of 19
they multiplied 9/1 * 19/19 = 171/19
-25 15/19 + 171/19 =
change the mixed number to an improper fraction
(19* 25 +15)/19 = 490/19
-490/19 + 171/19 =
add together
-319/19
now convert the improper fraction back to a mixed number
19* 16 =304 319-304=15
-319/19 =-16 15/19
Its D, because the 40% were licensed drivers and the 37%were probably just drivers without their license.
