The school is having a book-a-thon. The winning class gets a pizza party. The fifth grade has 20 students and one week to read as much as possible. The 6th grade already finished and read a total of 299 hours. How many hours does each student in 5th grade need to average per day to beat them by 1?

How many hours did the 6th grade read? ** The class needs to read 300 hours in a week because 299 + 1 = <<300=300>>300
How many hours does the class need to read? ** The class needs to read 60 hours a day because 300 / 5 = <<300/5=60>>60
How many hours does each student need to read? ** Each student needs to read 3 hours a day because 60 / 20 = <<60/20=3>>3
