Math Problem Statement
Kiran reads 5 pages in 20 minutes. He spends the same amount of time per page.
How long will it take him to read 11 pages?
Solution
To solve this problem, we start by finding how long it takes Kiran to read 1 page.
Kiran reads 5 pages in 20 minutes. So, the time per page is:
Now, to find out how long it will take Kiran to read 11 pages, we multiply the time per page by the number of pages:
Thus, it will take Kiran 44 minutes to read 11 pages.
