    Answer:

    It will take 125 minutes or 2 hours and 5 minutes.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We can use a proportion.

    7 pages is to 5 minutes as 175 pages is to x minutes

    7 : 5 = 175 : x

    7/5 = 175/x

    7x = 5 * 175

    7x = 875

    x = 125

    It will take 125 minutes or 2 hours and 5 minutes.
