Given:

Henry is an avid reader. He devours 90 pages in half-an-hour.

Now, to find pages Henry has read per minute.

Let the number of pages Henry has read per minute be

Number of pages he devours in half-an-hour = 90 pages.

According to question:

Dividing both sides by 30 we get:

Therefore, Henry has read per minute 3 pages.
