    Colton solved 9 math problems and read 18 pages.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    9*2=18

    9 problems * 3 minutes per problem = 27 minutes

    18 pages * 1.5 minutes per page = 27 minutes

    27 + 27=54

    The best way to solve is by trial and error and just testing out different numbers to see if they will work.
