Alejandro read 4 pages in 6 minutes, then it would take him 9 minutes to read 6 pages
Solution:
Given that Alejandro read 4 pages in a book in 6 minutes
Therefore,
4 pages = 6 minutes
Let us find the time taken to read 1 page
time taken to read 1 page = time taken to read 4 pages divided by 4
[tex]\text{ time taken to read 1 page } = \frac{6 minutes}{4} = \frac{3}{2} minutes[/tex]
Thus to read 6 pages at this rate, multiply time taken to read 1 page by 6
[tex]\rightarrow \frac{3}{2} \times 6 = 9[/tex]
Therefore it would take 9 minutes to read 6 pages
