Question

Myra can type 70 words in 2 min. how many words can she type in 5 min

Answer 1

Answer: 175 words

Explanation:

First start out by dividing how many amount (5 min) you are looking for by the amount (2 min) that we already know.

5 / 2 = 2.5

This gives us the key to finding our final answer.

Use this new number (2.5) and multiply it by 70 to get our answer.

70 x 2.5 = 175

Answer 2

first convert 2mins to seconds

60sec=1 min

which is 2×60=120sec

then70/120sec=0.583

convert 50mis to sec

5×60=300sec

so therefore 300sec×0.583=174.9words
