Asked by Indiana Jones

A printer can print 24000 pages in 2 hours.
a) if the printer starts printing at 2:30 pm, how many pages will be printed by 5:15 pm?

b) if the cost of printing pages is $12.50, what is the cost of printing per minute?
For the first one I got 33000 pages and for the second one I got $5 per minute
is it correct?

I think I got 33000 correct but I am not sure about the second one

2:30 ---> 5:15 = 2.75 hours
at 12000 pages per hour ----> 2.75(12000) = 33000 , you had that

for b), divide your cost of $12.50 by 2.75 hours to get the cost per hour.
Divide that by 60 to get the cost per minute
