Question

Lucy is typing a paper for science class. She can type 375 words in six minutes. How long will it take her to type the entire paper if it needs to be 5,000 words

Answer 1

If Lucy can type 375 words in 6 minutes, then she can type 1 word in 6/375 minutes. Therefore, in 6/375 minutes, she can type 5,000 words.
Let's calculate this:
6/375*5000=80
So, it would take her 80 minutes to type the entire paper.
