Jolie can read around 14 sentences per minute of her current novel. She wants to finish her reading before the movie comes out next week. If she has 17 pages left to read and each page has about 120 sentences, how many hours should Jolie set aside to complete her reading?



Answer :

This is what you would do
120 x 17
Or you could do 12 x 17 then, add a zero to the end of it.
Then you would divid from what you got when you did 120 x 17 by 60
That should give you the answer.
Hope this helps

Number of sentences left to read is 17x120=2040
Number of minutes it will take=2040/14
                                              =145.71minutes
145.71 minutes= 2 hours 25.71minutes
Jolie needs to set aside 2 hours 26minutes
