A secretary can type 8 pages per hour.There are a total of 96 pages to type. How many pages remain to be typed after 6 hours?
8 * 6 = 48
96 - 48 = ?
16 pages
If a secretary can type 8 pages per hour, in 6 hours the secretary can type 8 pages x 6 hours = 48 pages.
So, after 6 hours, there are still 96 pages - 48 pages = 48 pages remaining to be typed.
To find out how many pages remain to be typed after 6 hours, we need to first calculate how many pages the secretary can type in 6 hours, and then subtract that from the total number of pages to be typed.
Since the secretary can type 8 pages per hour, in 6 hours, the secretary can type 8 pages/hour x 6 hours = 48 pages.
Now, we can find out how many pages remain to be typed after 6 hours by subtracting the number of pages typed in 6 hours from the total number of pages to be typed.
Total number of pages to be typed = 96 pages
Number of pages typed in 6 hours = 48 pages
Therefore, pages remaining to be typed after 6 hours = Total number of pages to be typed - Number of pages typed in 6 hours
= 96 pages - 48 pages
= 48 pages.
So, after 6 hours, there are 48 pages remaining to be typed.
