Let’s note down the facts of this problem.
3 pages takes 15 minutes to read, so let’s find out how many minutes it takes to just read 1 page.
3 pages -> 15 minutes to read
1 page -> ? minutes to read
We’ll divide the bigger number by the small number to make it easier to break down evenly.
15 minutes divided by 3 pages equals 5 minutes per page.
15 minutes/3 pages = 5 minutes per page
In order to double check that we have the right answer you can multiply the 5 minutes per page times 3 pages, which equals a total of 15 minutes to read.
5 minutes per page x 3 pages = 15 minutes to read
So now that we know how many minutes it takes to just read one page we take the 5 minute per page answer and multiply that by 90 pages which equals your final answer of 450 minutes (which is 7.5 hours)
5 minutes per page x 90 pages = 450 minutes
I hope this helps! Reach out to me if you need any further explanation.
