Sarfarz bought a book. He read 1/3 of it on the first day and 1/2 it on the second day but 25 pages reminded still to read. Find the total number of pages

Answer»

Answer:

150

Step-by-step EXPLANATION:

Let, the total no. of PAGES be = X

Part of book READ by Sarfaraz on 1st day = 1/3 of x = x/3

Part of book read by Sarfaraz on 2nd day = 1/2 of x = x/2

By the problem, l

Total no. of pages - total no. of pages read by Sarfaraz = Remaining pages

or, x-(x/2 + x/3) = 25

or, x - 5x/6 = 25

or, x/6 = 25

or, x = (25 * 6)

or, x = 150
