Henry loves to read. He reads 90 pages in half-an-hour. How many pages does Henry read per minute?

To determine how many pages Henry reads per minute, we calculate as follows:

Henry reads **90 pages in 30 minutes**. To find pages per minute:

\[
\text{Pages per minute} = \frac{\text{Total pages}}{\text{Total minutes}} = \frac{90}{30} = 3
\]

**Answer:** Henry reads **3 pages per minute**.
