Answer:

50hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 400 pages in Sheila's favorite book.

The average number of words per page in the book is 300

She types an average rate of 40words per minute.

So to type 400pages of the book

Total number of words in the pages = 400×300 = 120000 words

Typing rate : 40words ------- 1minute

120000 words ----------- x minutes

Hence we have 40 × X mins = 120000 × 1min

Make X the subject

40X = 120000minutes

X = 120000/40

X = 3000minutes

Since 60minutes = 1hour

3000minutes = 3000minutes/60

= 50hours

Hence it took her 50hours to type 400pages

A child is hopping along a sidewalk. The ratio table below shows the comparison between the number of hops and the distance trav
natima [27]
First we rewrite the table:
 20    30
 50    75
 80    120
 150   ?
 We observe that for each 30 number of hops, the distance increases by 45 feet.
 We must find the slope of the line:
 m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
 m = (75-30) / (50-20)
 m = 1.5
 Then, the line is:
 y = 1.5x
 We substitute x = 150
 y = 1.5 * (150)
 y = 225
 Answer:
 
Find the ratio of hops to distance traveled (1: 1.5), then multiply 150 by 1.5.

So, you divide 18 by 12 to get 1.5
but since you want the fraction, just reduce 18/12 as much as possible to get 3/2
