    80 pages

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Because 60 pages is 3/4 of the total number of pages, you can create the equation:

    60 = 3/4x, with x being the total number of pages

    To solve, divide the number on the left (60) by the numerator (3)

    60/3 = 20

    3/4x / 3 = 1/4x

    20 = 1/4x

    Then, multiply both sides by 4

    20*4 = 80

    1/4x*4 = x

    80 = x

    Thus, 80 is the total number of pages in the book
