Question

52) If a computer prints 108.0 lines in 4.00 seconds, how many lines can it print per minute?

Answer 1

1620 lines / minute.

Explanation:

Proportions:

1 minute = 60 seconds

Then:

108 lines ⇒ 4 seconds

A lines ⇒ 60 seconds

A = 108 lines * 60 seconds / 4 seconds

A = 1620 Lines

Answer 2

To convert the number of lines printed per second to lines printed per minute, we can multiply by 60.

So, the number of lines per minute = 108.0 lines/4.00 seconds * 60 seconds/minute = 1080 lines/minute.
