Easy!
Since the greatest multiple of 9 lesser than 79 is 72, you get a remainder of 7
8 7/9
In order to find who has read more pages, let's find the number of pages read by each one.
The number of pages read by Clancey is:
The number of pages read by Ethan is:
So Ethan read more pages.
The combined number of pages in both books is 240 + 170 = 410.
The combined number of pages read is 60 + 68 = 128
So the fraction is:
A1 = 35x+25
Good guys = 40x
35x+25 = 40x
subtract 3x x from each side
25 = 5x
divide each side by 5
x = 25/5 = 5
so 5 hours they would be the same cost, anything over 5 hours and A1 would be better
so X>5 for A1 to be the better price
