Remaining words = 1000*(1 - 2/5) = 1000*(3/5). Rate = 6 1/2 = 13/2 words/min. Time = (1000*(3/5)) ÷ (13/2).
So the correct choice is: 1000 times three-fifths divided by StartFraction 13 Over 2 EndFraction (which equals 1200/13 ≈ 92.3 minutes).
So the correct choice is: 1000 times three-fifths divided by StartFraction 13 Over 2 EndFraction (which equals 1200/13 ≈ 92.3 minutes).
