Favourable ways

Are these rates equivalent, 96 words typed for 3 minutes; 160 words typed for 5 minutes
monitta
<h2>Greetings</h2>

Answer:

Yes, they are.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>1st rate)</h3>

Lets simplify both rates to the rate typer per minute.

(m is minutes)

3m = 96

Divide both sides by 3:

\frac{3m}{3} = \frac{96}{3}

m = 32

So the rate is 32 words per minute.

<h3>2nd rate</h3>

5m = 160

Divide both sides by 5:

\frac{5m}{5} = \frac{160}{5}

m = 32

<h3>So because the rates per minute are the same, they are equivalent.</h3>

What number do you divide by 12 to get 9
finlep [7]

Well I don't know.  Let's figure it out together.

You said (a number) divided by 12 gives you 9 .

A fraction is the easiest way to show division, so
you can write this equation:

               (number) / 12  =  9

Now you can multiply each side of the equation by  12 .
When you do that, you have ...

                 number   =   9 x 12

                 <em>number   =    108</em> .

Now you know how to find it.  That's even better than just
having the answer.
