Answer: 31.3 minutes


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Time taken to read each page of science= 1.2 minutes

Thus, time taken to read 9.75 pages of science\(1.2\times9.75=11.7\ minutes\)

Time taken to read each page of play of english =  0.8 minutes

Thus, time taken to read 24.5 pages of science\(0.8\times24.5=19.6\ minutes\)

Therefore, total time spent on reading = 11.7+19.6=31.3 minutes
