Answer:

14400 words

Explanation:

1 hour = 60 minutes

2 hours

= 2 x 60

= 120 minutes

Let the no. of words that he can type in 2 hours is " x ".

1800 : 15 : : x : 120

1800 / 15 = x / 120

1800 * 120 = 15 * x

x = 1800 * 120 / 15

= 120 * 120

x = 14400 words

Therefore,

He can type 14400 words in 2 hours.
