Answer:

Zac will finish, Pam won’t

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s have the individual reading speeds

The individual reading speeds are the number of pages divided by hours taken

For Pam; 126/3 = 42 pages per hour

For Zac; 180/4 = 45 pages per hour

In five hours, Zac would read; 45 * 5 = 225 pages

In five hours, Pam would read 42 * 5 = 210 pages
