Kelly is typing an essay it takes her 1/2 of a minute to type 42 words how many minutes will it take her to type a 357 word essay for language arts

Respuesta :

Answer:

4.25 minutes.

Explanation:

If she types 42 in 1/2 a minute that means she can type 84 in a whole minute. So, you divide how many words she has (357) by how many she can type per minute (84) and you get how long it will take her (4.25 minutes)

Hope this helps!

30 seconds = 42 words
60 seconds = 82 words

357 divided by 82 = 4.35

it would take Kelly 4 minutes and 35 seconds to type a 357 word essay
