Answer:

8.75 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve.  Put the pages over the time and set them equal.

4 pages       7 pages

------------- = ---------------

5 hours        x hours

Using cross products

4 * x = 5 *7

4x =35

Divide by 4 on each side

4x/4 = 35/4

x =8.75 hours
