Let b>a,
a+b=40 so we can say a=40-b
We are told that b-a=6.5, using a found above in the equation gives us:
b-(40-b)=6.5
b-40+b=6.5
2b-40=6.5
2b=46.5
b=23.25, and since a=40-b
a=40-23.25
a=16.75
So a=16.75 and b=23.25
check...
16.75+23.25=40, 40=40
23.25-16.75=6.5, 6.5=6.5

Answer:
18 x 6 =108. she spent 108 minutes reading.
Step-by-step explanation:
First you should combine n/6-5n/12
that goes to 2n/12-5n/12 which equals -3n/12
then you should cross multiply -3n/12 by 1/16
12(1)=-3n(16)
12=-48n then solve for n by dividing by -48
-12/48=n simplify -1/4=n or -.25=n
