The students in Mrs. Reed's English class are reading the same -page novel. Three friends, Alice, Bob and Chandra, are in the class. Alice reads a page in seconds, Bob reads a page in seconds and Chandra reads a page in seconds. Chandra and Bob, who each have a copy of the book, decide that they can save time by `team reading' the novel. In this scheme, Chandra will read from page to a certain page and Bob will read from the next page through page finishing the book. When they are through they will tell each other about the part they read. What is the last page that Chandra should read so that she and Bob spend the same amount of time reading the novel?

Anandita and Bhuvaneshwari can finish reading a book in 5 hours and 6 hours respectively. They sit down to read their respective copies of the same book. They spend some time discussing the characters and in any hour, they could read, between the two of them, 21 pages less than what they would have read together, if they were not discussing. In 3 hours, the total number of pages read by them is equal to the number of pages in the book. How many pages are there in the book?
