To find Jaime's typing rate in words per minute, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{Typing Rate} = \frac{\text{Total Words}}{\text{Total Minutes}}
\]
In this case, Jaime typed 364 words in 7 minutes. Plugging in the numbers:
\[
\text{Typing Rate} = \frac{364 \text{ words}}{7 \text{ minutes}} = 52 \text{ words per minute}
\]
So the answer is:
**D. 52 words per minute**
\[
\text{Typing Rate} = \frac{\text{Total Words}}{\text{Total Minutes}}
\]
