Question

Kilo typed 1,125 words in 15 minutes let w represent the number of words typed each minute If Lolo typed the same number of words each minute how many words did she type in 1 minute

Answer 1

Answer:

She type 75 words in 1 minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Lolo typed 1,125 words in 15 minutes.

Let w represent the number of words typed each minute.

Now, to find the number of words she type in 1 minute if Lolo typed the same number of words each minute.

So, we solve it by using cross multiplication method:

As 1125 words is equivalent to 15 minutes.

Thus, w number of words equivalent to 1 minutes.

$\frac{1125}{15} =\frac{w}{1}$

By cross multiplying we get:

⇒ $1125=15w$

Dividing both sides by 15 we get:

⇒ $75=w$

⇒ $w=75.$

Therefore, she type 75 words in 1 minute.
