The correct answer would be 16/24. You would need to multiply both the denominator and numerator by 4.
Given:
40 pages in 1.6 minutes
40 / 1.6 = 25 pages per minute
25 x 5 minutes = 125 pages
40 / 1.6 = x / 5
40*5 = 1.6x
200 = 1.6x
200/1.6 = x
125 = x pages
25 : 1 = 150 : x
25x = 150
x = 150/25
x = 6 minutes
Because you have to connect the other two sides , so a diagonal line will be longer than a vertical line
I believe it is an exponential function.
