Answer:

160 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

75% = 120 pages so , by proportion, 100% = 120 * 100/75

= 120 * 4/3

= 40 * 4

= 160 pages.

Answer:

160 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

75% of x = 120

Turn 75% into a fraction or decimal

75/100 * x = 120

0.75 * x =120

0.75 is multiplying with x so to get rid of 0.75, we have to multiply both sodes by 0.75

x = 120/0.75

x = 160

So there are a total of 160 pages in the book.
