Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct proportion

60: 1 5 /12 = 120 : x

60: 17/12 = 120:x

Product of extremes = product of mean

60*x = (17/2)*120

[tex]60*x=\frac{17}{12}*120\\\\60*x=17*10\\\\x=\frac{17*10}{60}\\\\x=\frac{17}{6}\\\\x=2\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

It will take  2 5/6 hours to read 120 pages
