Alya loves to read. She reads 90 pages in half an hour. How many pages does she read per minute?
Set up a proportion of pages to minutes. Since 30 minutes is a half hour, we have the number of pages (p) for 1 minute as:
90/30 = p/1
To solve this proportion for p, we type it in our search engine and we get:
p = 3
