total number of pages = 550 pages
total amount of time to read the full book = 10 hours
======================================================
Work Shown:
1 hour = 55 pages
4 hours = 220 pages ... multiply both sides by 4
After 4 hours, he had read 220 pages. Since he has 330 still left to read, this brings the total to 220+330 = 550 pages overall
550/55 = 10 hours is the total amount of time needed to read the entire book at a rate of 55 pages per hour. This is assuming the rate is kept constant.
While 10 hours is a lot, it's somewhat plausible to get the full book read in one continuous session. Though he is better off taking (short) breaks every now and then.
Answer:
550 pages
10 hrs
Step-by-step explanation:
he reads 55 pages per hour
4 hrs* 55 pages/hrs=220 pages
the book is 550 pages long
220 pages+330=550 pages
to find the time to read the whole book:
330/55=6 hrs +4 hrs=10
or
550/55=10 hrs
