Tatyana can text 225 words in 5 minutes. How many words can Tatyana text in 12 minutes

Answer 1

To find the number of words Tatyana can text in 12 minutes, we can set up a proportion.

Let x be the number of words Tatyana can text in 12 minutes.
We can set up the proportion: 225 words / 5 minutes = x words / 12 minutes

Cross-multiplying, we get: 5 * x = 225 * 12
5x = 2700

Dividing both sides by 5, we get: x = 540

Therefore, Tatyana can text 540 words in 12 minutes. Answer: \boxed{540}.
