Answer:

It will take Amy approximately 5 hours to count to 19000

Step-by-step explanation:

Amy counts 60 numbers per minute, since an hour has 60 minutes, this means that Amy will count 60 x 60 =3600 numbers per hour.

Now we divide the quantity of numbers she counts: 19,000 by 3600 (numbers she counts per hour)

[tex]19000[/tex]÷[tex]3600= 5.27777[/tex]

Therefore, it will take Amy approximately 5 hours to count to 19000
