You have 36 pages to read for homework. in 5 minutes you read 10 page if you countinue to read at the same rate how many times will it take you to read all 36 pages?

18 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

5 mins = 10 pages

10 mins = 20 pages

15 mins = 30 pages

20 mins = 40 pages

Just keep adding 5 to the minutes and 10 to the pages. then if you divide 10 by 5 (10÷5) you get 2.

2 is the amount of pages you read in 1 minute.

so 1 minute = 2 pages

Since you only need to read 36 pages, you know that it would at least take you 15 mintes to read 30.

then you start adding 1 minute until you get to 36 pages.

15 minutes = 30 pages

16 minutes = 32 pages

17 minutes = 34 pages

18 minutes = 36 pages

Therefore, it should take 18 minutes to read all 36 pages.

(A shorter way of doing this would be doing 10÷5=2, then just dividing 36 by 2 (36÷2) and you would get 18 which would be the minutes it would take you to read all 36 pages if you read at 2 pages per minute.)
