Solution

The correct option is D 0.75
Number of pages read in 1,000 minutes = 750 = 750.0

Number of pages read in 1 minute = 750.0 ÷ 1000

To divide a number by 1000, we have to move the decimal point three places to the left.

750.0 ÷ 1000 = 0.750

Number of pages read in 1 minute = 0.75

Hence, the decimal number obtained, when we find the number of pages read in 1 minute is 0.75.
