Sao can text 1500 words per hour. He needs to text a message with 85 words. He only has 5 minutes between classes to complete the text. Can he do it in 5 minutes?

Respuesta :

Answer:

yes,in fact he can do it in just 4 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

number of words he can text per hour=1500

number of words he can text in a minute=1500÷60 (since there are 60 minutes in an hour,we are dividing 1500 by 60 to get the answer in minutes)

=25 words per minute

number of minutes he has=5.

now, we have to multiply the number of words he can type in a minute by the number of minutes he has,so 25×5=125.

he can type 125 words in 5 minutes.
