Given:

Yosor typed a 36 word paragraph in 2/3 minute,

His speed will be:

We know formula for speed is distance/time

Let the word typed be distance and time is 2/3 minute


\begin{gathered} \text{Speed = }(36)/((2)/(3)) \\ \\ \text{ = 36}\ast(3)/(2)\text{ = }54\text{ words per min} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the speed per minute is 54 words per minute
