Nicole can type 8 words in 1/6 of a minute. How many words can she type in 120 seconds?

Thanks!


Sagot :

1/6 of a minute is also 1/6*60 which equals to ten seconds. To find how many words she can type in 120 seconds, we need to divide 120 by 10 and then multiply the rate. 120/10 = 12, and then we multiply 12 by 8. 12*8=96

Answer:  

Hi! The answer is 96 words

Step-by-step explanation:

120 seconds = 2 minutes (120/60)

Minutes: 1/6 x 6 = 6/6 or 1 minute

Words: 8 x 6 =  48 words

so the rate is 48 words/per minute

48 x 2 = 96 words

1 x 2 =  2 minutes

So she can type 96 words in 2 minutes/120 seconds
