The tab types 450 words in 12 minutes. So first find the rate of typing. It is the number of words tab types in 1 minutes

Rate = 450 /12 = 37.5

It means tab types 37.5 words in 1 minute.

Now there are 2400 word paper to type. So total number of words to type is 2400

The minutes required to type 2400 words is

= Total number of words to type / number of words typed in 1 minute

=2400/ 37.5

=64

It will take 64 mire minutes to complete typing of 2400 word paper
