ow many pages does Sari need to read each day to reach this goal?
On average, Sari needs to read at least 40 pages per day for the first 5 days of the week in order to reach her goal of reading at least 200 pages.
To find out how many pages Sari needs to read on average per day, you can divide the total number of pages she wants to read (200) by the number of days she has to read them (5).
To calculate the average, divide the total number of pages by the total number of days:
Average pages per day = Total pages / Total days
Average pages per day = 200 / 5
Average pages per day = 40
Therefore, Sari needs to read an average of 40 pages per day in order to reach her goal of reading at least 200 pages in the first 5 days of the week.
