Here we are given how much work is done in a fix time interval

then they ask to find the rate of doing the work .

in such problem we can find the rate of doing a work by using the formula :

amount of work done

--------------------------------------------------- = work done in unit time

Time taken to do that amount of work

In 40 minutes number of pages she reads = 50

In 1 minutes number of pages she would be reading = 50 /40

= 5/4 page
