reads page 47, wednesday he decides to skip all remaining odd pages and just reads all
other even pages.
how many pages are still left james does not read yet? .

103  

Step-by-step explanation:

Unread pages = (a) 1 - 12; (b) 32 - 46; (c) odd numbered pages from 48 - 200

The number of pages in each range is:

(a)  n₁ = 12 - 1 + 1  = 12

(b) n₂ = 46 - 32 + 1 = 15

(c) n₃ = 200 - 48 + 1 =153

Half the pages are odd-numbered.

153/2 = 76½.

200 and 48 are both even so there are more even-numbered pages in the range.

There are 77 even-numbered and 76 odd-numbered pages.

The total of unread pages is

12 + 15 + 76 = 103
