Hello There!

WHAT WE KNOW Levi reads 280 words in 2 minutes. We need to find out how many words he can read in 5 minutes

To find out how many words Levi can read in 5 minutes, it will first be easier to find out how many words Levi can read in 1 minute. To find this, we will divide 280 by 2 and that will give us the number of words per minute.

Next, once we divide we will get a quotient of 140.

Finally, we take 140 and multiply it by 5 and we get a product of 700

Therefore, Levi reads 700 words in 5 minutes
