Fran reads 54 pages per hour if she reads total of 257 pages one weekend how many hours to the nearest hundredth does he read

I wrote the equation 54x=257, where x=number of hours used reading, which means you have to solve for x. which is 4.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle TML is similar to triangle TVU.  Side TV measures 36 and side TM meaures 9; side TV is 4 times longer than side TM.  Same with sides VU and ML.  VU is 4 times longer than ML.  That means that side TU is 4 times longer than side TL.  Side TL measures x - 4; side TU measures 24 + x - 4 which is x + 20.  That means that x + 20 = 4(x - 4) and x + 20 = 4x - 16 and

3x = 36 so

x = 12
