the question is write 2 ratios implied by this statement: Juan took 3 hours to read 120 pages. Then it asks hour many hours to read 560 pages.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3%2F120=x%2F560\"$ or $\"560%2F120=x%2F3\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Either way you get:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3%2F120=x%2F560\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3%28560%29%2F120=x%28560%29%2F%28560%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"14=x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "x=14 hrs.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"560%2F120=x%2F3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3%28560%29%2F120=3x%2F3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"14=x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "x=14 hrs.
\n" ); document.write( "Happy Calculating!!! \n" ); document.write( "
