he read 144 pages in 3 hours. if he reads at the same pace how long will it take him to finish his 264 page book

5 and a half hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know he can read 144 pages in 3 hours we can find how many pages he can read in one hour by dividing 144 by 3

144/3=48

We find that he can read 48 pages a hour

Now we divide 264 by 48 to get 5.5 or five and a half hours

5.5 hours or 330 minutes
