Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Comment

Let the number of pages = x

Play =    1/3x

Actors = 1/4(x - 1/3 x)

Actors = 1/4(2/3x)

Actors = 2/12 x

Producer Director etc = 2 pages

Equation

Actors = 2 pages

2/12 x = 2

Solution

2x/12 = 2               Multiply both sides by 12

12*2x/12 = 2*12     Combine

2x = 24                  Divide by 2

2x/2 = 24/2           Combine

x = 12

Answer

The program had 12 pages.
