printer print in 4 and 1/2 minutes?

Final answer:

Without the rate of pages printed per minute, we can't calculate the number of pages the printer prints in 4 and 1/2 minutes. An example was provided assuming a hypothetical rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate how many pages a printer prints in 4 and 1/2 minutes, we need to know the rate at which the printer prints pages. Since the exact rate is not provided in the question, we cannot calculate the number of pages without additional information. Typically, such a question would include information like 'the printer prints X pages per minute.' With that rate, we would multiply it by 4.5 (which is 4 and 1/2 minutes) to get the total number of pages printed in that time.

For example, if the printer prints 10 pages per minute, then in 4.5 minutes, the printer would print 10 pages/minute × 4.5 minutes = 45 pages.
