  • C. 418
  • D. 420

  • Correct Answer
  • 418 

    Explanation

    Let the total book be 1

    Then, in the 1st week 6 13 th of book is read

    i.e remaining pages =   1 - 6 13 = 7 13


    in 2nd week he read 5 9 th of it

    i.e 5 9 × 7 13 = 35 117
    Remaining pages after 2nd week =  7 13 - 35 117 = 28 117

    But given remaining pages after 2nd week = 100

     

    28 x 117 = 100

    --> x = 418 

     The total pages in the book are 418
