Respuesta :

x111flowers
20 mins = 32 pages
375 pages / 32 = 11.7
11.7 x 20mins = 3.9 hours so 234 minutes

It will takes him 234 minutes to read 375 pages

The total time that should be taken by him to finish the book is 3.9 hours.

Given that,

  • There are 20 minutes of reading for 32 pages of the book.
  • Now there are 375 pages.

Based on the above information, the time taken should be

[tex]= 375 \times 20 \div 32[/tex]

= 234.375 minutes

Now in hours it should be

[tex]= 234.375 \div 60[/tex]

= 3.9 hours

Therefore we can conclude that the total time that should be taken by him to finish the book is 3.9 hours.
