Group of answer choices

Answer 1

225 words

Explanation:

In order to find the answer to this question we have to find how many words she writes in 1 minute. To do this you need to divide 90 words by 4 minutes:

(90)/4 = 22.5 words/minute

Now that the words per minute is found, we can multiply it by the 10 minutes to find how many words she can write in 10 minutes:

(22.5)(10) = 225

Therefore, Sara can type about 225 words in 10 minutes.

I hope this helps!!
