A color printer prints 14 pages in 5 minutes.

How many pages does it print per minute?

1 answer

To find out how many pages the printer prints per minute, you can divide the total number of pages by the total number of minutes.

Given:

  • Total pages printed = 14 pages
  • Total time = 5 minutes

Now, divide the number of pages by the number of minutes:

\[ \text{Pages per minute} = \frac{\text{Total pages}}{\text{Total time}} = \frac{14 \text{ pages}}{5 \text{ minutes}} = 2.8 \text{ pages per minute} \]

So, the printer prints 2.8 pages per minute.
