Jan has 500 pages of paper.

She has a report of 16 pages.

But a report is printed on both sides of the page.

So the complete report shall be printed on 8 pages.

Now as the total pages are 500

We shall divide 500 by 8 and convert the simplified fraction to mixed no.

Now

[tex] \frac{500}{8} =\frac{125}{2} = 62\frac{1}{2}      [/tex]

So we shall be able to print 62 complete copies of the report which shall use 62 × 8 = 496 pages.

Number of pages left = 500 - 496 = 4 pages.
