Answer:

80 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to figure out the answer to this problem:

[tex]\frac{16}{1} = \frac{x}{5}[/tex]

16 pages every week, and some amount of pages every 5 weeks. Notice that if we can multiply 1 by 5 to get 5, we should be able to multiply 16 by 5 to get the value of x. 16 times 5 is 80, and this is the answer to our problem.
