Anita read 24 pages of her book in 12 minutes how long will it take her to read 34 pages

To figure this out, you have to figure out how quickly Anita reads. She reads 24 pages in 12 minutes so you divide 24 by 12. 24/12=2. So she reads 2 pages per min. To figure out how quick she would read 34 pages, you divide 34 by 2. 34/2=17. It would take her 17 minutes to read 34 pages

Best answer that i found on yahoo ok   set :   x= length of 2nd piece in cm  x- 3= length of 1st piece in cm  x-4= length of 3rd piece in cm  then since you know they all came from the 20 cm ribbon you add them together and set them equal to 20x+ x-3 +x-4 = 20  3x - 7= 20  3x= 27  x= 9  the shortest piece is the third piece which is x- 4  x-4  9-4 = 5  the length of the smallest piece is 5 cm.  the other lengths are  9 cm  6 cm
