Question

Stephanie can type around 70 words per minute. She has less than a week to type her final research paper. If the paper has to be at least 15 pages long and each page has about 350 words, how many hours should Stephanie set aside to type her assignment? Show your work to receive full credit. (10 points)

Answer 1

350*15 is 5250. That is the total words needed to reach her assignment paper goal. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour we would need to figure out how many words she can type per hour. 60*70 is 4200. Then we divide 5250 by 4200. We get 1.25. Soooo our final answer would be 1 hour and 15 minutes need to be set aside to type her assignment. I really hope this is correct it makes sense to me. If not i am truly sorry.
