Answer:

A person can read 24 pages in 1/3 hour. There are 3 * 1/3 hours in 1 hour. So, the person can read 24 * 3 = 72 pages in one hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

20 minutes is 1/3rd of an hour. 24 pages / 20 minutes = 1.2 pages per minute. 60 minutes * 1.2 ppm = 72 pages per hour.  

60/3=20

24/20 = 1.2

60*1.2=72
