Question 964526
Claudia is reading a book that has 360 pages. 
She read some of the book last week.:: "x"
----------------------
She plans to read 47 pages today.:: 47
----------
When she does , she will be 4/5 of the way through the book. How many pages did she read last week. 
-----
Equation:
x + 47 = (4/5)*360
x + 47 = 4*72
x + 47 = 288
x = 241 pages (amt. she read last week)
