Accepted Solution
A:
The rate at which Sydney can read the pages of a certain book, article, or whatsoever write-up is given to be 50 pages per 40 minutes. This can be better expressed as, 50 pages/40 minutes The number of pages that she can read each minute is calculated by dividing both the numerator and the denominator of the ratio by 40, giving us, (50/40) / (40 /40) The new ratio is now 1.25:1
