Question

Janelle types at the rate of Syntax error from line 1 column 49 to line 1 column 73. Unexpected 'mathsize'. Of a page per minute. Which statement about Janelle is true? A) Janelle can type 8 pages in 1/3 of a minute B) Janelle can type 2 pages in 3/4 of a minute C) Janelle can type 1/2 page in 3/4 of a minute D) Janelle can type 1/4 of a page in 2/3 of a minute

Answer 1

Answer: D) Janelle can type 1/4 of a page in 2/3 of a minute

Explanation:

Option A is wrong because based on the constraints, Janine would type less than 3/8 of a page in anything less than a minute. 8 > 3/8.

For that same reason, option B is wrong as well. 2 > 3/8.

1/2 > 3/8 so Option C is wrong for the same reason as the options above.

To test option D;

If Janine can type 3/8 of a page per minute, how much can she type in 2/3 minutes.

Assume the much she can type is x;

3/8 : 1

x : 2/3

1x = 3/8 * 2/3

x = 1/4

Option D is therefore correct.
