    If I have a reading average of 2 hours 30 minutes 0 seconds per 93.25 pages, how long would it take me to read 58 pgs?

    Set up a proportion, of reading time to pages where m is the number of minutes it takes you to read 58 pages.

    2 hours and 30 minutes is:
    60(2) + 30
    120 + 30
    150 minutes

    Our proportion is:
    150/93.25 = m/58

    Type this proportion into the search engine, and we get:
    m = 93.3 minutes, or about 1 hour, 33 minutes
