Answer:

Number of pages written in 8 hours = 42 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Henry can write 5 1/4 pages of his novel in hours.

[tex]\texttt{Number of pages written in 1 hour = }5\frac{1}{4}=\frac{5\times 4+1}{4}=\frac{21}{4}[/tex]

We need to find how many pages can Henry write in 8 hours

Time of writing = 8 hours.

[tex]\texttt{Total number of pages written in 8 hours = }8\times \frac{21}{4}=42\texttt{ pages}[/tex]

Number of pages written in 8 hours = 42 pages
