5200 - 700 = 4500

25 words per minute

25 × 60 = 1500 words (1 hour)
4500 ÷ 1500 = 3
Answer: 3 hours

it will take her 3 hours because 5,200-700=4,500 and then u devide 4,500÷25=180minutes and then since 60 minutes equals 1 hour you multiply 60×3 and it gets you to 180 minutes and that equals 3 hours
