Question

1. lilly read 3 pages in 5 minutes. at that rate, how many pages could she read in 11 minutes?

Explanation:

Step1: Find the reading rate

The rate is pages per minute. So, rate $r = \frac{\text{pages}}{\text{minutes}}=\frac{3}{5}$ pages per minute.

Step2: Calculate pages in 11 minutes

Use the formula $\text{pages} = r\times\text{minutes}$. Substitute $r = \frac{3}{5}$ and minutes = 11. So, pages $=\frac{3}{5}\times11=\frac{33}{5} = 6.6$.

Answer:

6.6 (or $\frac{33}{5}$)
