Peter is reading a 193-page book. He has read three pages more than one-fourth of the number of pages he hasn’t yet read. How many pages has he not yet read?

Respuesta :

Let X be amount of pages that he has NOT yet  read.
So he read (x/4+3) pages
Book has 193 pages. This means that x+(x/4+3)=193
x+(x/4+3)=193
5x/4+3=193
5x/4=190
x=190*4/5
x=152 pages he hasn't read yet
