Answer:
The Time taken by Carmen to read 140 pages of book is 261.14 min
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The time taken by Carmen to read 67 pages of book = 125 minutes
Let time taken by Carmen to read 140 pages of book = x minutes
Now, [tex]\frac{Time taken}{Work done}[/tex] = constant
∵ time taken by Carmen to read 67 pages of book = 125 minutes
So,time taken by Carmen to read 1 page of book = [tex]\frac{125}{67}[/tex] min
∴ time taken by Carmen to read 140 pages of book = [tex]\frac{125}{67}[/tex] × 140 min
Or, time taken by Carmen to read 140 pages of book = 1.8656 × 140 min = 261.14 minutes
Hence The Time taken by Carmen to read 140 pages of book is 261.14 minutes Answer
