Question

Tia types 66 words in 3 minutes.she wants to know how many words she can type in 5 and 10 minutes

Answer 1

Divide 66 words by 3 minutes to find the typing rate per minute. Then, multiply the typing rate by 5 minutes and 10 minutes to find how many words she can type during those time intervals, respectively.

Typing rate:

`\frac{66\text{ words}}{3\text{ minutes}}=22\text{ words per minute}`

Words typed in 5 minutes:

`(22\text{ words per minute)(5minutes)=110 words}`

Words typed in 10 minutes:

`(22\text{ words per minute)(10 minutes)=220 words}`

Therefore, Tia can type 110 words in 5 minutes and 220 words in 10 minutes.
