Answer: it will take 3.4 days to finish the book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of days that it will take sal to finish reading the book.

Sals book has a total number of 52 pages.

Sal already read 18 pages. This means that the number of pages left for Sal to read would be

52 - 18 = 34

He plans to read 10 pages each day until he finishes the book. This means that the number of days it will take Sal to finish the book would be

10x = 34

x = 34/10 = 3.4
