Answer:

Second Attempt is faster.

Step-by-step explanation:

He reads 360 words in [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] hour in the first attempt and in the second attempt he reads the same number of words in [tex]\frac{1}{15}[/tex] hour.

Since, [tex]$ \frac{1}{15} < \frac{1}{12} $[/tex] he takes less time in the second time. Less time means the work is done faster.

Therefore, second attempt is faster.
