Question

Clark typed 720 words in 18 minutes. How many words can he type in one minute?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Clark can type 40 words in one minute

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Set up a proportion: $\frac{720}{18} = \frac{x}{1}$  
2. Cross multiply, then divide: 720 × 1 = 720, 720 ÷ 18 = 40
3. So, x = 40

I hope this helps!

Answer 2

720/18 = 40

He can type 40 words a minute
