Answer:

1 minute = 51 words

10 minutes = 510

Step-by-step explanation:

you divide 153 by 3 to see how many words he can type in one minute, which is 51 words. you then multiply that answer by 10 to see how many words he can type in 10 minutes. 51 x 10 = 510, which means he can type 51 words in one minute and 510 in ten minutes.
