Answer:
A) 4 hours
B) 7:25 PM on the same Monday.
C) 12:10 PM on Tuesday.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of pages in the first book = 400
A) Time taken to read each page = 36 seconds
To find the number of hours taken to finish reading the book, we need to first find the number of seconds taken to finish reading the book.
Time taken by Aisha to finish reading 400 pages = 400 [tex]\times[/tex] 36 = 14400 seconds
3600 seconds = 1 hour
14400 seconds = [tex]\frac{1}{3600}\times 14400[/tex] hours = 4 hours
B) Reading timings of Aisha :
1st time = 10:15 AM to 2:10 PM i.e. a duration of 3 hours and 55 minutes
2nd time = 7:20 PM to 09:00 PM i.e. a duration of 1 hour and 40 minutes
4 hours are taken to read this book.
So, it will require 5 more minutes after the 1st reading time.
Therefore, Aisha will finish reading at 07:25 PM on same Monday.
C) Second book has 350 pages.
Time taken to read 350 pages = [tex]\frac{350\times 36}{3600}[/tex] = 3.5 hours
She starts reading at 07:25 PM on Monday.
Up to, 9 PM, a duration of 1 hour and 35 minutes will be utilized for reading the second book.
A total of 1 hour and 55 minutes more will be required.
Therefore, the second book reading will be finished at 12:10 PM on Tuesday.
