Answer» Let the number of pages in book = n Then,3n/8 + 2/5(n - 3n/8) + 156 = nn - 3n/8 - 2n/5 + 3n/20 = 156 Take LCM40n - 15n - 16n + 6n = 156*4015 n = 6240n = 416 Total pages in book = 416

Answer»

Let the number of pages in book = n

Then,3n/8 + 2/5(n - 3n/8) + 156 = nn - 3n/8 - 2n/5 + 3n/20 = 156

Take LCM40n - 15n - 16n + 6n = 156*4015 n = 6240n = 416

Total pages in book = 416
