Answer: Not proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of pages read by Jim on Tuesday to minutes = $\frac{24}{40}=\frac{3}{5}=3:5$

Ratio of pages read by Jim on Wednesday to minutes = $\frac{18}{24}=\frac{3}{4}=3:4$

But $\frac{3}{5}\neq \frac{3}{4}$

Therefore, the ratios of pages read to minutes on Tuesday and Wednesday are not proportional.
