I want to read pages 3 through 123 of a book in 23 days, reading the same amount of pages (strictly as wholes) each day at least until the last day. How do I figure out how many whole pages I should I read each of those days (except probably the last one) in order to finish reading them on the last day (the last day probably having slightly fewer pages to read than read per day on the other days)?

Okay, let's make this super easy! First, figure out the total number of pages you need to read. You said pages 3 through 123, so subtract 2 from 123 to get 121 pages to read in total.

Now, divide the total number of pages (121) by the number of days you have (23). That's 121 / 23, which is roughly 5.26. Since you can only read whole pages each day, you'll read 5 pages each day. Multiply 5 pages by 23 days, which is 115 pages. Subtract 115 from 121, which is 6 pages. So, you'll read 5 pages each

Alright, let's break this down. You've got 121 pages to tackle (123 - 3 + 1 = 121), and 23 days to do it.

First, divide the total pages by the number of days: 121 / 23 = 5.26. Since you need to read whole pages each day, aim for 5 pages a day for the first 22 days. That's 5 pages/day * 22 days = 110 pages.

Now, subtract the pages you'll read in those 22 days from the total: 121 - 110 = 11 pages. That means on the 23rd day, you'll read 11 pages. So, your schedule is: 5 pages a day for 22 days,

Alright, let's cut to the chase. You've got 121 pages (123 - 3 + 1) to read in 23 days. To figure out the daily page count, divide the total pages by the number of days: 121 / 23 = 5.26.

Since you need whole pages each day, read 5 pages per day for the first 22 days. That's 5 pages/day * 22 days = 110 pages. This leaves 121 - 110 = 11 pages to read on the last day. So, read 5 pages for the first 22 days, and then 11 pages on the 23rd day. Done.

Alright, let's break this down! First, we need to figure out how many pages you're reading in total. You're starting on page 3 and going to page 123, so we subtract 3 from 123, and then add 1 (because we need to include page 3) to get 121 pages.

Now, you want to read those 121 pages over 23 days. To find out how many pages you should read each day, we'll divide 121 by 23. When you do that, you get 5 with a remainder of 6. That means you can read 5 pages each day for 22 days, and then on the las

Okay, let's break this down and get you on track to conquer those pages! First, figure out the total number of pages you need to read. You said you want to read pages 3 through 123, so that's 123 - 3 + 1 = 121 pages.

Now, divide the total number of pages (121) by the number of days you have (23). That gives you approximately 5.26 pages per day. Since you want to read whole pages, aim for reading 5 pages each day for the first 22 days. This will leave you with 121 - (5 * 22) = 11 pages to read o
