Change the percent to a decimal and multiply it by 140.

What do you get?

To find out how many pages Gina read, we can use the formula:

Number of pages read = (Percentage read / 100) x Total number of pages

Given that Gina has read 35% of her 140-page book, we can substitute the values into the formula:

Number of pages read = (35 / 100) x 140

To evaluate this expression, divide 35 by 100 to get the decimal form of the percentage: 0.35. Then, multiply 0.35 by 140:

Number of pages read = 0.35 x 140
Number of pages read = 49

Therefore, Gina read 49 pages of her book.
