Answer:
Q1. 168 words from sixth sentence.
Q2. 171 words from line 3.
Q3. 177 words from the first three sentences.
Q4. Method 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 1.
The paragraph has seven sentences.
I chose the sixth sentence ("gentle vegetarian"). It contains 24 words.
7 sentences × (24 words/1 sentence) = 168 words
Question 2.
The passage contains 19 lines.
I chose line 3 ("amazing powers"). It contains nine words.
19 lines × (9 words/1 line) = 171 words.
Question 3.
I chose the first three lines. They contain 28 words.
Words per line = 28 words/3 lines = 9.33 words per line
Total words = 19 lines × (9.33 words/1 line) = 177 words
Question 4
The passage contains 176 words. Method 3 comes closest to the actual number of words.
