Marie can read 200 words in a minute and she took 14 hours to book that checked out from the library Linda 160 per How long will need same book?

Let \(t\) be the time in hours it took Linda to read the same book. Since Marie can read 200 words in a minute and she took 14 hours to read the book, she read a total of \(200 \times 14 \times 60 = 168000 \) words. Since Linda reads 160 words per minute, she will need to read for

$$t = \frac{168000}{160} = \frac{21000}{20}=1050\ minutes=17.5 \ hours.$$

Therefore, Linda will need 17.5 hours to read the same book.
