Samir can type 2800 words in 33 minutes
Solution:
Given that Samir can type 85 words per minute
To find: Time taken to type 2800 words
From given question,
1 minute = 85 words
Let "x" be the time taken to type 2800 words
Therefore,
1 minute = 85 words
"x" minute = 2800 words
This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying
[tex]1 \times 2800 = x \times 85\\\\85x = 2800\\\\x = \frac{2800}{85}\\\\x = 32.9 \approx 33[/tex]
Thus Samir can type 2800 words in 33 minutes
