word problem

Question

Courtney reads around 110 words per minute. She procrastinated and now has less than a week to finish her reading assignment. If the book she needs to finish has another 820 pages left and each page has around 350 words, how many hours should she set aside to complete her assignment? 

Answer 1

(820)(350) = 287000, words to read

287000 / 110 ≅ 2609, minutes needed

110 / 60 = 43.48, hours to read
