Answer:

125 pages in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the number of pages the book has for x.

Then,

We know Laura has read 3/5 of x

The equation then formed will be,

3/5 of x = 75 pages

Therefore, x= 75 x 5/3 (fractions reciprocate when change places)

Which implies,

x= 125 pages.
