Answer 1

Answer:

After the extended period of time, Pete would have typed 6400  words.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

In the same time;

number typed word of Pete = 80

type word of Ralph = 50

After a period time;

number of typed word of Pete = ?

number of typed word of Ralph = 4000

so, let x represent the number of typed word by Pete after an extended period.

so

80 words = 50 words

x words =    4000 words

we cross multiply

x × 50 = 4000 × 80

x = ( 4000 × 80 ) / 50

x = 320000 / 80

x = 6400

Therefore, After the extended period of time, Pete would have typed 6400  words.
