Stream of consciousness rationale: If Emery took twenty days to read the book, then it took Serena 5 * 20 = 100 days to read the whole book. The total number of days taken by the two to read the book is 100 + 20 = 120 days. The average number of days the two take to read the book is 120 / 2 = 60 days.
The question and answer pair are described below.
