The equation:
[tex]\frac{1}{3}p-3=114[/tex]
The solution:
[tex]\frac{1}{3}p-3=114 \ \ \ |+3 \\ \frac{1}{3}p=117 \ \ \ |\times 3 \\ p=351[/tex]
The total number of pages is 351.

The total number of pages is 351.
(114+3) * 3 = P
John has read 114 pages 114
He has read 3 pages less than one-third the novel 114+3=1/3P
Multiply both sides by 3 gives you your answer (114+3)*3=P
