Answer:

132 words per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

If the computer prints out 8.8 lines per every 4 seconds, an easy way to find out how many words it types per minute is to find out how many words can be typed per second.

If there are 8.8 words typed per 4 seconds, it can type 2.2 words per second. Then all we have to do is multiply by 60 to get how many words are typed per 60 seconds, or per minute. 2.2*60=132 So the computer can type 132 words per minute.
