4.76 hours or ± 4 hours and 45 minutes

Explanation:

$54$ $54$ pages = $1$ $1$ hour
$257$ $257$ pages = $\frac{257}{54} \times 1$ $257/54 xx 1$

$4.76$ $4.76$ hours

1 hour = 60 minutes
.76 hours = $\frac{.76}{1} \times \frac{60}{1}$ $.76/1 xx 60/1$
$= 45$ $= 45$ minutes

$\to 4 h o u r s and 45$ $-> 4 hours and 45$ minutes
