Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A proportional relation is given between minutes spend in reading and no of pages
Suppose we choose the point 
, It shows that 2 minutes is taken to read three pages.
Similarly, for point 
, It shows four minutes is taken to read 6 pages.
In this way, 6 minutes is taken for 12 pages.
Step-by-step explanation:
115 = 5x + 15
115 - 15 = 5x
100 = 5x
20 = x
5 1/2 + p = 6
subtract 5 /12 from each side
5 1/2 - 5 1/2+ p = 6 - 5 1/2
p = 6 - 5 1/2
borrow from the 6
p = 5 2/2 - 5 1/2
p = 1/2
Start by proving to them that the number 0.57 can be converted into a fraction . A whole number can't exactly be put in to a fraction. 0.57 can be converted to 14.25/25. This information means that 0.57 IS a rational number. Hope this convinced them!
